About Me
Hi, I'm Yakov — a Full Stack Developer specialising in React, Node.js, MongoDB and Next.js. I'm passionate about building software that genuinely improves the lives of the people who use it.
I didn't start in web development. I spent well over a decade in IT: supporting servers and networks, running my own lab, training teams and solving the kind of problems that only show up in production. That background is why I think about reliability before I think about features.
In 2024 I made the switch deliberately — a full-stack bootcamp, then project after project. Today my stack runs from React, Next.js and Tailwind on the front to Node.js, MongoDB, PostgreSQL and REST APIs on the back.
