I engineer high-performance web & mobile products.
A decade building fast React / Next.js interfaces, cross-platform React Native apps, and decoupled headless architectures. A software architect and team lead who turns complex specs into products that ship.
The technologies I master, drawn from real projects.
The toolset comes directly from the platforms, SaaS dashboards, mobile apps, and e-commerce portals I've built. I pick technologies for performance, security, and long-term scaling.
Frontend
Ultra-fast, responsive, SEO-optimized interfaces. Next.js, React, TypeScript, and modern styling engines for performant, accessible apps.
Mobile Apps
Premium cross-platform apps with native performance and clean animations. With React Native and Expo — fluid iOS & Android experiences from one codebase.
Backend & Databases
Resilient, secure server infrastructures, custom REST/GraphQL APIs, and AI integrations (Gemini, OpenAI). Built with Node.js, Laravel, and Python, backed by PostgreSQL, MySQL, and Supabase.
CMS & E-commerce
High-performance headless architectures and custom e-commerce systems. I decouple backends with Headless WordPress, WooCommerce, custom Shopify storefronts, WHMCS billing, and LearnDash e-learning portals.
AI woven into how I build — not bolted on at the end.
I work AI-first: on every project I first ask where intelligence adds real leverage — both in the product and in the delivery process. Models aren't a gadget; they're part of the architecture.
An AI-first workflow
I code with Claude Code — using skills, subagents, and spec-driven development: I start from a clear spec, delegate tasks to subagents, and automate scaffolding, refactoring, tests, and code review. I deliver faster — without lowering the quality bar.
Integration & orchestration
I wire Gemini and OpenAI into real backends: structured outputs, retrieval (RAG), and function/tool calling — with care for cost, latency, and data security.
Built AI-first by default
I design the data and UX so intelligent features slot in natively, not as an afterthought. AI is an architectural decision from day one.
AI in the products I ship
Gemini-powered financial analysis, recommendation engines, assistants, and automations that remove manual work — real features, in production (see Investment Analysis & ERIS).
Real platforms, shipped and live.
Case studies built on performance-driven architectures.
Next-Matrix
A Next.js 15 / React 19 B2B ordering & configuration platform for custom shutters and awnings. JWT/REST to a headless WordPress + WooCommerce backend, with sub-second order calculation.
Investment Analysis Tools
An analytical app for stock-market monitoring. Uses Gemini AI to process financial data and generate custom investment recommendations.
ERIS
A mobile app (Easy Recipe Intelligent System) for smart food inventory and meal planning: barcode scanning, Socket.io multi-user sync, and recipe recommendations based on available stock.
Matrix UK
A B2B platform for made-to-measure products, with a 13-phase dual-currency pricing engine, container grouping, and QuickBooks oauth2 invoicing.
Coșul Local
Customer portal and driver-routing app for local producers, with live order tracking and payment integrations. A personal project.
Balkan Dating App
A cross-platform mobile dating app for the Balkan community, focused on cultural compatibility and real-time messaging.
A track record of consistent performance and on-time delivery.
Software architect and team lead roles in profile companies — guiding teams and turning complex specs into successful products.
ROWEB
Developing and optimizing e-commerce solutions for the HoReCa industry with WooCommerce. Built complex online ordering flows and high-performance digital menus.
Lifetime Shutters & Windows
Long-term architecture and maintenance of the custom product-configuration platform. Led the full architectural migration from legacy WordPress to a modern Next.js stack, using WordPress as a Headless CMS, deployed to Vercel.
Thecon
Technical coordinator for 30+ dynamic websites and interactive platforms. Specialized in advanced product-configuration systems and translating UI/UX mockups into modular code. Guided and mentored a team of 4 front-end developers on React.js best practices.
SHUTTER NES CRAZY S.R.L.
Founded VeloDev studio to provide direct, secure, and scalable software services to national and international clients. Full coordination of project analysis, execution, and delivery.
Marian Putirac
I'm a senior software engineer with over 10 years of experience, specializing in high-speed React / Next.js interfaces, cross-platform React Native & Expo apps, and flexible architectures based on decoupled WordPress (Headless CMS).
My career spans key software-architect and team-lead roles, guiding developer teams and turning complex specs into successful products. I combine corporate engineering rigor with the speed and flexibility modern startups need.
No unsupervised junior developers. Every line of code is written, tested, and validated to the highest standards — reducing technical debt and ensuring a clean, easy-to-extend architecture.
Working together, briefly.
Who owns the intellectual property and code?+
You do. 100%. Once a project or milestone is paid, all IP rights, database layouts, and repository access transfer fully to your company. No licensing fees, no vendor lock-in, no hidden ongoing costs.
Do you offer post-launch support and maintenance?+
Yes. Every project includes a 30-day warranty where I fix any bugs free of charge. Beyond that, I offer monthly retainer packages covering updates, backups, security monitoring, and minor features.
What is your starting budget and project size?+
Direct project engagements typically start at €3,000 for structured web builds or custom software. For technical audits, migrations, or senior advisory, I work on a daily or hourly fee. I supply transparent fixed-price proposals after an initial scoping call.
How do we collaborate and communicate during projects?+
I prioritize full alignment and async transparency. We set up a Slack or Teams workspace for daily updates. The repository lives on GitHub with real-time access. I run bi-weekly screen-share demo sessions.
Direct access to senior-level engineering.
Whether it's a Next.js platform, a React Native app, or a headless migration — I cut the overhead of large agencies and deliver directly.
