SUMMARY

Full-stack developer with almost 5 years of commercial experience in TypeScript; for the last two years full-stack at every
job — NestJS on the server, Vue / Nuxt, React / Next.js and Angular on the client. Now I own both sides of a live German
auto parts e-commerce: the NestJS API (catalogue and search, cart and orders, auth, PayPal) and the Nuxt 4 storefront.
At a fintech e-money platform I built KYC / KYB onboarding end to end — a NestJS service for the forms, server-side PDF
and 2FA, plus the Angular apps. At Gelios, a new EdTech product, I wrote the whole backend from zero — PostgreSQL,
MongoDB, Redis, JWT roles, Stripe + PayPal, WebSockets, Docker and CI/CD.

EXPERIENCE

ORAP GmbH — Full-Stack Developer Apr 2026 — Present · Remote
Two live storefronts of a German auto parts group — orap.de (B2B / wholesale) and handlerparts.com — NestJS API
behind Nuxt SSR, multi-locale.
Own orap.de's frontend almost end to end — 243 of 256 commits, 228 components: catalogue, cart, bulk article
search, customer dashboard, PayPal checkout, several languages; Lighthouse performance 95 on desktop.
Built the auth layer: email confirmation, password recovery, route guards, cookie-stored tokens with a rotating
refresh token — concurrent near-expiry requests coalesced into a single refresh.
Main API on NestJS: catalogue and search (analogues, tyres, bulk article search), cart and orders with order changes
and delivery addresses, login with refresh tokens and password recovery, PayPal payments and payment statuses; plus
the Nitro server layer (token refresh, VAT check, caching, sitemap).
Led the Nuxt 3 → 4 upgrade on the live shop behind tests written first (190 unit tests on Vitest today); found and
fixed a silent bug that dropped every meta tag, added a regression test.
Stack: NestJS, Node.js, TypeScript, REST, PayPal · Nuxt 3 & 4, Vue 3, Pinia, Nitro, Tailwind CSS, zod, Vitest, msw, Playwright, axe-core
