Django is my go-to backend framework for any project which requires an SQL database and an admin dashboard. Django is the 'batteries included' web framework - making it fast and easy to build, test and deploy web services. I have deployed numerous web application using Django. These typically include: i) Django Rest Framework for restful APIs, ii) social authentication, iii) transactional emails, iv) payment processing, and v) websockets for live chat and push notifications.

React is my go-to frontend Javascript framework. React is a game-changer because it enables us to quickly develop flexible, testable, responsive frontend applications. React is the frontend framework of choice for most of my full-stack projects. I put great effort into staying up-to-date with the latest trends and recommended practices. This includes: i) react hooks, ii) redux and redux-saga for state management, iii) the css-in-js convention, iv) next.js for server-side rendering and v) GraphQL.

Menda is a comprehensive web app designed to streamline the process of contract negotiation and exchange. It is a multi-party, subscription-based web application aimed at law firms and conveyancers. It streamlines what is traditionally a laborious, manual workflow, and adds greater provenance of data, documents and communications. Menda is built using Django Rest Framework and React, and deployed on AWS. It includes a number of third-party integrations for payment processing, transactional emails and collecting electronic signatures. I am engaged as the technical lead of Menda Software. My duties include overseing the technical roadmap, managing the development team, agile sprint management, code review, and managing infrastructure and QA tools.

I worked as the lead developer with the New South Wales Government (Australia) on an innovative regulation-tech concept called ‘Rules as Code’. This concept involves specify legislation as machine-consumable code, creating APIs to access those 'coded rules' and building web services to help better deliver government services. I was responsible for system architecture, full-stack development, dev-ops, user testing and presentation of results. I recently gave a masterclass on this topic to the Australian Society for Computers and Law (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnn8p8xaP1U&t=3150s&ab_channel=AUSCL). This project was entirely open source. You can find my contributions in the repositories below: - https://github.com/energy-savings-scheme - https://github.com/openfisca
