“Full-Stack Developer with 8 years building e-commerce and retail tech across the entire stack”
Christian Hernandez, Senior Full-Stack Developer
Section A — AboutBy Christian Hernandez
I'm a full-stack developer with 8 years of experience building web applications across the entire stack, primarily in e-commerce and retail technology. I've worked on everything from CMS-driven storefronts and Shopify customizations to React-based front ends, Node.js APIs, and PostgreSQL-backed analytics platforms. Most of that work has happened inside small startup teams of three to eight people, where I've had to move fast, make real technical decisions, and ship production-ready software with limited overhead.
What keeps me engaged is the full picture: I like understanding why a system is slow, how data flows from a user action through to a dashboard, and where a schema decision made early causes pain later. Right now my focus is on the intersection of front-end architecture and data visualization, building interfaces that make operational data genuinely useful rather than just visible. I hold a BS in Computer Science from the Polytechnic University of the Philippines and have been working in the industry since graduating in 2018.

Section D — CareerChronicle
Nov 2023 – Jul 2026
Senior Fullstack Engineer · Stratosphere Digital Corp.
- I architect and maintain a suite of insurtech products covering policy management, claims processing, and client-facing reporting dashboards, building the front end with React, TypeScript, and Next.js and the back end with Node.js and PostgreSQL — with AWS Lambda handling serverless event-driven processing within the pipeline.
- I designed and scaled analytics pipelines that stream underwriting and claims data to stakeholders in real time, leveraging Apache Kafka for event streaming and integrating with BI layers to deliver reliable, low-latency reporting dashboards.
- I collaborate closely with product and data teams to evolve the reporting infrastructure, ensuring scalability and resilience as data volumes and user concurrency grow across the platform.
- I lead technical decisions across the full stack, defining patterns for API design, data modelling in PostgreSQL, and front-end component architecture to maintain consistency and reduce delivery risk across concurrent workstreams.
Mar 2021 – Oct 2023
Fullstack Developer · Zenith Solutions Inc.
- I delivered full-stack projects for insurance and financial services clients simultaneously in an agency environment, building customer portal UIs in React and Vue.js alongside RESTful APIs in Node.js and Express — deploying serverless functions via AWS Lambda to handle asynchronous workloads such as document processing and notification triggers.
- I built and maintained MySQL and MongoDB-backed services, designing schemas and query patterns optimised for the data-heavy reporting and quoting workflows common across insurance broker clients.
- I developed and customised WordPress themes and plugins including WooCommerce integrations, enabling insurance broker clients to manage content and quoting tools within a single CMS-driven platform.
- I owned the end-to-end delivery of multiple concurrent client projects, coordinating across design, QA, and stakeholder review cycles to ship reliable, production-ready applications on schedule.
Sep 2018 – Feb 2021
Junior Fullstack Developer · Vanguard Technologies Ltd.
- I built responsive front-end interfaces using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and jQuery, and developed PHP and MySQL back-end services for a diverse portfolio of client projects in an agency setting.
- I customised Shopify storefronts using Liquid templates for e-commerce clients, integrating back-end logic and third-party APIs to extend platform functionality beyond default theme capabilities.
- I contributed to an internal project-tracking tool that helped account managers monitor delivery across the client portfolio, building both the front-end interface and the underlying data layer.
- I established foundational fullstack practices — version control workflows, modular component design, and database schema conventions — that I have built upon consistently throughout my career.
