Dear client, I’m a hands-on full-stack engineer with deep experience building and scaling e-commerce and marketplace platforms, designing cloud-native architectures, and shipping AI-powered features into production, and I’m particularly interested in opportunities where I can own the technical vision end-to-end—from rapid prototyping with AI-assisted tooling through to scalable infrastructure, performance optimization, automation, and evolving a core product into a standalone SaaS platform, while partnering closely on roadmap, hiring, and long-term platform strategy. Are you currently rebuilding Layerline from scratch or evolving the existing stack into the vertical Shopify-style platform? What is the current monthly GMV or traction level, and where are the biggest technical bottlenecks today? How are you envisioning equity structure and vesting for the technical co-founder role? Best regards

I’m a full-stack engineer with 8+ years of experience building and scaling production systems, including e-commerce and marketplace platforms. I ship code daily across React/TypeScript, Node.js, and cloud infrastructure (AWS), with strong DevOps and CI/CD practices. I’ve architected platforms from scratch, handled third-party integrations (payments, shipping, CRM), and optimized for performance and scalability. I actively leverage AI tools (Cursor, Copilot, Claude) for rapid prototyping and automation, and I’ve built AI-driven workflows, recommendation systems, and operational automations. I think in systems, not features. I’m interested in a co-founder role because I want ownership, long-term value creation, and the opportunity to build a defensible platform — not just execute tickets. Happy to share product links and discuss equity + performance-based structures aligned with growth milestones. Available for a call this week.
