Emerson – PostgreSQL, Next.js, Node.js

Emerson is a Node.js, TypeScript, React, and Next.js full-stack engineer who led the core transaction engine for a regulated real-time gaming platform, handling 10,000+ concurrent requests at 70–150ms. Earlier, as tech lead on a marketplace with 120,000+ daily users, Emerson modernized a legacy frontend and fixed partner API traffic that was causing downtime.

Experience Highlights

Senior Full-stack Web Developer
Jan 2026 - Oct 20269 months
Project Overview

High-concurrency Remote Game Server (RGS) and real-time iGaming platform built to support regulated casino operations. Leading the full-stack architecture, I owned the end-to-end development of the core transaction engine and interactive game clients—enabling ultra-low latency game sessions (10,000+ concurrent requests in 70–150ms), real-time betting events, regulatory compliance auditing, and seamless frontend gaming experiences.

Responsibilities:
  • Engineered a mission-critical Remote Game Server (RGS) and real-time transactional engine using Node.js, NestJS, and TypeScript, sustaining 10,000+ concurrent requests while maintaining 70–150ms p99 latency.
  • Leveraged Redis Streams and distributed locking mechanisms to process high-velocity transactional events, preventing race conditions and enforcing strict API rate limiting.
  • Designed fault-tolerant PostgreSQL schemas with Drizzle ORM, applying DDD and CQRS patterns to decouple high-frequency write operations from complex read/reporting queries for ACID-compliant financial ledgers and automated regulatory compliance.
  • Built high-performance, real-time frontend interfaces using Next.js, React, and WebGL/PixiJS, ensuring smooth state synchronization under heavy network traffic.
  • Spearheaded an AI-augmented QA pipeline using Claude Code agents to automate Playwright E2E test suites, cutting regression testing cycles and accelerating CI/CD deployments.

Tech Lead
Sep 2022 - Jan 20263 years 4 months
Project Overview

Large-scale B2C retail e-commerce and multi-vendor marketplace serving 120,000+ daily active users across Brazil, modernized from a legacy monolithic architecture into a resilient, headless React and Node.js ecosystem capable of sustaining massive Black Friday traffic peaks.

Responsibilities:
  • Promoted to Tech Lead within 4 months after taking ownership of a stalled enterprise B2C marketplace (120,000+ daily active users), aligning roadmaps with executive stakeholders to deliver a successful Go-Live.
  • Led the end-to-end frontend and BFF modernization from a legacy Knockout.js monolith to a scalable React, Redux, Next.js, and Node.js headless ecosystem, eliminating N+1 query bottlenecks.
  • Diagnosed and resolved critical production downtime caused by third-party partner integrations flooding internal Admin APIs; re-architected Node.js API routing, connection pooling, and rate limiting to isolate mission-critical workloads.
  • Engineered low-latency checkout security by integrating client-side device fingerprinting with custom Node.js fraud-prevention middleware, and guaranteed Black Friday stability using Akamai CDN edge caching and Datadog observability.
