About Hunter
Senior Software Engineer · 6+ Years · New Bern, NC
Background
I am a results-driven Senior Software Engineer with over 6 years of experience building and shipping production software. My focus spans the full stack — React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, NestJS, and AWS — with particular depth in frontend architecture, serverless infrastructure, and event-driven systems. I hold the AWS DVA-C02 Developer Associate certification and am a Certified Senior React Developer (Certificates.dev).
I transitioned into software development in 2018 after a personal setback that prompted a deliberate career change. Within one month of self-directed study I had enough foundation to join Mathison Projects Inc. as an intern, and within two months I was contributing meaningfully to production codebases. I reached mid-level developer in under two years.
My approach to engineering is built around clarity of ownership and a strong preference for solving hard problems correctly the first time. I have led teams, mentored interns, and served clients across Healthcare, Commerce, FinTech, and B2B SaaS. Outside of professional work, I am actively developing expertise in Go for systems-level personal projects.
If you are looking for an engineer who takes ownership from spec to deployment and communicates clearly throughout — I would enjoy hearing about what you are building.
