Available to start immediately. I build and fix real .NET & C# software. Click on Invite button to start conversation Iโ€™m a .NET Developer and C# Developer with 13+ years of experience working on production systems built in C#/.NET. Most of my work is focused on helping teams make their existing software more stable, scalable, and easier to evolve without risky rewrites. Iโ€™ve worked in long-term roles as a C#/.NET developer, often joining projects where the codebase already exists and needs structure, performance improvements, or careful modernization. ๐Ÿง  How clients usually come to me Very often, teams reach out to me as a .NET developer when they already have a product written in C#/.NET, but something isnโ€™t working as it should. Changes are slow, bugs appear in unexpected places, or the architecture feels fragile. In those cases, I step in as a C# .NET Developer who understands how real systems grow over time and how to improve them without breaking production. Depending on the scope, I work either as a backend developer focused on logic and performance, or as a .NET Full Stack Developer when both backend and UI decisions need to be handled together. โš™๏ธ What I do in real projects Day to day, my work as a .NET Developer is very practical. I write and refactor C#/.NET, clean up .NET architecture, improve async flows, and make sure the application behaves predictably in production. In many projects, this naturally turns into .NET full stack work handling backend services, APIs, and UI integration where I step in as a .NET Full Stack Developer. When teams want a modern .NET Full Stack direction without splitting the codebase, I build new features or full applications using .NET MAUI/WPF/WinForms. Iโ€™ve worked with .NET apps both for new products and for migrations from older stacks like, where stability matters more than speed. ๐Ÿงฉ Types of systems Iโ€™ve worked on Over the years, Iโ€™ve worked as a .NET Developer, across different environments: ๐Ÿ’ป Desktop software written in C#/.NET ๐ŸŒ Web platforms where I worked as a full stack developer on .NET backends ๐Ÿ“ฑ Cross-platform apps built with .NET MAUI (Windows & Android only) ๐Ÿงฑ Larger products that required a true full stack developer approach ๐Ÿ”— Mixed systems where .NET AI integration was part of the stack ๐ŸŽฎ Internal tools and simulators developed with C# ๐Ÿค– Careful use of .NET AI where it actually added value In several projects, I worked in React .NET setups, connecting React frontends to .NET backends while keeping responsibilities clean and clear. ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ How I work with teams and data Iโ€™m comfortable joining existing teams and reading unfamiliar C#/.NET codebases. I focus first on understanding why decisions were made, then improving things step by step. I regularly work with SQL server, collaborate with Azure Data Engineer roles, and support data-heavy systems where performance & reliability are critical. This mix of responsibilities often places me in a .NET Full Stack Developer role even when the original task starts as pure backend work. ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Tech Stack .NET Framework, .NET 6 / 8 / 9 / 10 App Development - WPF, WinForms, WinUI, Blazor, .NET MAUI, MVVM Concurrency & Performance - Multithreading, async/await, Task Parallel Library Hardware & Protocols - Serial, Bluetooth LE, TCP/IP, UDP, RS232, RS422 Architecture & Quality - Clean Architecture, OOP, refactoring, performance tuning Security & Testing - Unit testing, Polaris, Coverity, SAST, DAST, threat modeling Data & Cloud - SQL Server, Azure Tooling - Visual Studio, VS Code, GitHub, GitHub Actions, Docker โœ… Why clients choose to work with me โœจ I think like a long-term .NET Developer, not a short-term task runner โœจ I write C# code that other C# developers can actually maintain โœจ Iโ€™m comfortable owning systems as a .NET Full Stack Developer โœจ I communicate clearly and avoid surprises โœจ I leave .NET full stack codebases cleaner and more stable than I found them ๐Ÿ“Œ Availability โœ… Available now ๐ŸŒ Remote-only โฑ๏ธ Open to long-term collaboration If youโ€™re looking for a .NET Developer, who can step into an existing system and improve it safely letโ€™s chat. ๐Ÿ‘‰ Send a message and weโ€™ll review your setup together.

๐Ÿš€ Hi, I'm Dmytro. I'm a Front End developer with more than 8 years of experience building web and mobile applications for startups, product companies, and growing businesses. As a Front End developer, I've worked on MVPs, SaaS platforms, e-commerce products, internal business tools, and customer-facing applications used by thousands of users. ๐Ÿ’ก My primary focus as a Front End developer is creating fast, responsive, and user-friendly applications using modern JavaScript technologies. I enjoy transforming complex requirements into clean, maintainable solutions that provide real value to users and businesses. ๐Ÿค Throughout my career as a Front End developer, I've worked closely with designers, product managers, backend engineers, and business stakeholders to deliver products that are both technically solid and enjoyable to use. I believe a successful Front End developer should understand not only the code but also the goals behind the product. ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Technologies I work with As a Front End developer, my main stack includes: โ€ข React โ€ข Next.js โ€ข TypeScript โ€ข JavaScript โ€ข React Native โ€ข Angular โ€ข Vue.js โ€ข HTML5 โ€ข CSS3 โ€ข Tailwind CSS โ€ข Material UI (MUI) โ€ข SCSS โ€ข Webpack โ€ข Vite โ€ข Node.js ๐Ÿ“ˆ Over the years, I've helped companies hire a reliable Front End developer who can contribute quickly, improve existing codebases, and build new features with confidence. โš™๏ธ What I can help with As a Front End developer, I can help with: โ€ข Building modern web applications from scratch โ€ข Developing scalable React and Next.js applications โ€ข Creating reusable component libraries โ€ข Design system implementation โ€ข Responsive and mobile-first development โ€ข Performance optimization โ€ข Server-Side Rendering (SSR) โ€ข Progressive Web Apps (PWA) โ€ข API integration โ€ข Frontend architecture โ€ข React Native mobile applications โ€ข Refactoring legacy projects โ€ข Bug fixing and maintenance ๐Ÿ”ง Many clients choose me as a Front End developer because I can quickly understand business requirements and translate them into practical solutions. When companies need a Front End developer who can take ownership of a feature from planning to production, I can provide that support. ๐ŸŒ I've worked as a Front End developer on both small startup projects and large-scale applications. My experience as a Front End developer allows me to adapt to different team structures, coding standards, and development processes. ๐Ÿงฉ Although my primary role is a Front End developer, I also have experience with backend development. This broader perspective helps me become a more effective Front End developer because I understand how frontend systems interact with APIs, databases, and cloud infrastructure. ๐Ÿ’ป I've worked with: โ€ข PostgreSQL โ€ข MongoDB โ€ข MySQL โ€ข Firebase โ€ข Firestore โ€ข Supabase โ€ข AWS โ€ข Node.js โ€ข Python โ€ข PHP ๐Ÿ”— This experience allows me to work effectively with backend teams and contribute as a Front End developer who understands the complete product lifecycle. ๐ŸŽฏ How I work I believe a great Front End developer should focus on more than writing code. A Front End developer should understand user experience, accessibility, performance, maintainability, and business objectives. ๐Ÿค As a Front End developer, I value clear communication, ownership, and attention to detail. Every Front End developer should be able to balance technical excellence with practical business needs, and that's the approach I bring to every project. ๐Ÿ“š I've also contributed as a Front End developer in areas such as: โ€ข Code reviews โ€ข Technical planning โ€ข Frontend architecture โ€ข Git workflows โ€ข CI/CD pipelines โ€ข Agile development โ€ข Team collaboration โ€ข Mentoring junior developers ๐Ÿš€ Whether you need a Front End developer for a short-term project, a Front End developer for long-term collaboration, or a Front End developer to strengthen your current engineering team, I can help. My goal as a Front End developer is to build products that users enjoy using and that businesses can confidently grow over time. ๐Ÿ“Š Companies often look for a Front End developer who can join an existing team and become productive quickly. Others need a Front End developer to help launch a new product or modernize an existing application. In both cases, I focus on delivering reliable, maintainable, and scalable solutions. โœจ If you're looking for a Front End developer with strong React expertise, modern frontend experience, and a practical approach to product development, I'd be happy to discuss your project. Best regards, Dmytro
