Rafael Luna

Full Stack Engineer and Tech Lead with 10+ years of experience building and scaling production-grade web applications and distributed systems. I work primarily with TypeScript/JavaScript, React, Node.js, Python, and Golang, and have strong experience designing microservices, event driven architectures, and cloud-native systems on AWS. Across fintech, healthcare, and data-heavy platforms, I’ve led end-to-end development from system design and API architecture to deployment and performance optimization. My work includes building real-time data pipelines, integrating financial systems, developing high scale messaging and analytics services, and delivering reliable backend infrastructure that supports complex workflows and large user bases. I bring a strong ownership mindset: I’m comfortable taking ideas from concept to production, making pragmatic technical decisions, and ensuring systems remain scalable and maintainable over time. I’ve also supported teams through code reviews, mentoring, and improving engineering practices. I’m looking for a remote role where I can contribute to building impactful products, take ownership of core systems, and work on challenging problems involving scalable architectures, real-time data, and AI-driven features.
