Senior Full Stack Software Engineer
Jodi Nichols
From the database to the UI, I build it all.
I'm a senior full-stack engineer with 10+ years of experience building and scaling web applications, APIs, and e-commerce platforms with React, TypeScript, PHP, MySQL, and Google Cloud.
I led engineering on a multi-site e-commerce platform serving 300+ business websites and 48M+ products. Along the way I mentored a team of developers through architecture decisions, code reviews, and releases. I also tuned MySQL performance across datasets of 10M+ records, built a CI/CD deployment system, and led a zero-downtime migration of about 30 production applications from Rackspace to Google Cloud.
I graduated summa cum laude from East Tennessee State University with a B.S. in Computer Science, and I'm looking for my next senior full-stack role.
