> full-stack developer 

Hi, I'm Jordan Vega. I build fast, reliable web products.

I design and ship end-to-end applications — from clean React front-ends to resilient APIs and the infrastructure behind them. Eight years turning fuzzy ideas into software people trust.

about me

Engineer who cares about the whole stack

I started writing PHP guestbooks as a teenager and never stopped. Today I work across the front-end, back-end, and the boring-but-critical parts in between — the kind of details that decide whether software is a joy or a chore to use.

Clean, tested code

I treat readability and tests as features, not chores — future-you is a stakeholder too.

Performance obsessed

Fast by default: I profile, measure, and optimize the path your users actually take.

Collaborative by nature

Clear PRs, honest reviews, and docs that the next developer will actually thank you for.

What teammates & clients say

"Jordan shipped our analytics platform faster than we thought possible — and the code was so clean our team could extend it without him."
Lena MoreauCTO, Pulse Data
"Rare to find someone equally strong on the front-end and the infra. Jordan owned the whole pipeline and never dropped the ball."
Raj KapoorEngineering Lead, Cartwheel
"Thoughtful PRs, clear communication, and a real eye for performance. Onboarding to his codebase took an afternoon, not a week."
