ABOUT ME

Building software that feels obvious to use.

I'm Rafi — a software engineer who builds mobile apps and web applications end to end, from the first wireframe to the production deploy.

My work centers on translating real problems into interfaces people don't have to think about. On the frontend that means careful state management and motion that earns its place; on the backend it means APIs and data models that don't fall over when traffic shows up.

I split my time between native-feeling mobile apps and fast, accessible web products — usually shipping both sides of the same product so design intent survives the whole pipeline.

SKILLS

What I bring to a project

A practical toolkit spanning mobile, web, backend, and the cloud infrastructure that ties it together.

Mobile Development

Cross-platform & native apps with React Native, Flutter, and Swift — built for performance and smooth UX.

Web Development

Modern, responsive web apps with React, Next.js, and TypeScript — fast by default, accessible by design.

Backend & APIs

Node.js, Express, and REST/GraphQL APIs with solid auth, validation, and database design.

Cloud & DevOps

AWS, Firebase, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines — deploying and scaling apps without the 3am pages.

System Design

Architecting apps that stay maintainable as features and teams grow.

Testing & QA

Unit, integration, and E2E testing with Jest, Cypress, and Detox to ship with confidence.

UI / UX Design

Figma-to-code workflows with an eye for spacing, motion, and accessible interaction.

Team Collaboration

Git workflows, code review, and agile delivery — comfortable in cross-functional teams.

SERVICES

How I can help

Whether you need a full product built or an existing one improved, here's where I plug in.

01 / Mobile

Mobile App Development

iOS and Android apps built with React Native or Flutter — one codebase, native feel, App Store ready.

02 / Web

Web App Development

Responsive, SEO-friendly web apps with React/Next.js — fast loads and clean, maintainable code.

03 / API

Backend & API Design

Secure, scalable APIs and database architecture that your app — and future features — can rely on.

04 / UI

UI/UX Implementation

Turning Figma designs into pixel-accurate, animated, responsive interfaces.

05 / Cloud

Cloud Deployment

CI/CD pipelines and cloud infrastructure on AWS/Firebase so releases are routine, not risky.
