Hi, I'm Pranjal — a Full Stack Developer with 4+ years of experience building scalable web and mobile applications using React, React Native, Node.js, GraphQL, and AWS.

Currently at ICF, I’ve built and maintained both internal and public-facing platforms used by 10,000+ users. I enjoy working end-to-end, from developing user-facing features to handling backend logic and infrastructure automation with Terraform.

I’m particularly interested in building user-centered, impactful tools, especially those that support well-being and movement. I’m AWS AI Practitioner certified and always exploring how to improve developer efficiency with AI tooling.

## Work Experience
### Software Engineer @ Hinge Health
Jan 2025 – Present | San Francisco, CA
At Hinge Health, I work on gamification and habit-formation features in React Native and TypeScript, shipping to a platform with 25M+ contracted lives. I built a Figma-to-Code AI pipeline that transformed design handoff reducing a half-day process to minutes.
I run A/B experiments on retention flows, analyze results in Mixpanel. On the API side, I work with GraphQL and NestJS to integrate backend services, and led a refactor that decoupled business logic from the UI layer resulting in a cleaner, more maintainable codebase.
The role involves close coordination across Product, Design, Backend, and QA to deliver complex features with confidence

### Full-stack Developer @ ICF

Built and maintained internal tools and public-facing platforms using React, Gatsby, and Material UI, improving performance and accessibility.

Designed secure, serverless APIs using GraphQL, AWS Lambda, and API Gateway, powering a web platform with 10K+ authenticated users via AWS Cognito.

Boosted performance by optimizing for speed with techniques like code splitting and lazy loading, leading to better engagement.

Automated infrastructure using Terraform and CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, speeding up deployments and improving reliability.

Contributed to mobile initiatives by developing a React Native app for both app stores, focused on onboarding and data access.

Took part in an AI pilot using Amazon Bedrock, experimenting with prompt design and large language model tuning for data transformation.

Developed comprehensive documentation and tests covering the entire project to support team scalability and quality.

### Software Engineer Intern @ Fashion Entertainment Media
Jan 2020 – Jan 2021 | United States
Built a cross-platform mobile app using React Native and Node.js, enabling appointment scheduling for 50+ service providers.

Led a team of 5 developers in an Agile environment, improving delivery speed by 30% through sprint planning and code reviews.

Implemented secure authentication and user management, laying the foundation for onboarding 1,000+ users.

Developed full-stack features including artist onboarding, service offerings, and role-based profile switching using MySQL, Node.js, and AWS.

Delivered responsive UI components and integrated REST APIs for a smooth user experience across Android and iOS.

### Web Development Intern @ University of Bridgeport
Jan 2019 – Jan 2021 | Bridgeport, Connecticut
Assisted with end-to-end web development using PHP, MySQL, JavaScript (ES6), and Drupal, improving internal tools and workflows.

Handled 100+ technical support issues across the stack, resolving the majority on first contact and reducing repeat errors.
