Project overview

I led the full-stack build of OpenCircuit Social, crafting a Next.js marketing site and a React Native mobile app that let users drop GPS-anchored caches, share moments where they happen, and livestream their escapades.

Under the hood, the platform runs on Node.js, GraphQL, and a PostgreSQL cluster, with Mapbox for live maps, WebSockets for real-time chat, and AWS-powered serverless functions keeping latencies low even in the wild.

The whole stack is wrapped in a robust CI/CD pipeline (GitHub Actions + Terraform) and hardened with automated security tests. A responsive PWA shell ensures the experience stays silky smooth on desktop, tablet, and phone.
