Patio
A fast-moving startup role with ownership from product definition through implementation, cross-team alignment, and technical debt control.
Ownership across the feature lifecycle
At Patio I was not only implementing tickets. The role included taking product requirements, turning them into technical scope, sizing work, and pushing features through the delivery loop with clarity.
That meant thinking about what should be built, how it should be split, and how it should be coordinated across teams before it ever reached the final implementation stage.
Cross-functional execution
A lot of the leverage came from being a practical bridge between frontend, mobile, and backend. The product moved quickly, so communication quality mattered almost as much as code quality.
The stack centered on React, Apollo Client, GraphQL, and Hasura, but the more important proof is the level of end-to-end ownership and pace tolerance.
Quality and maintenance discipline
The role also included code review, keeping the Jest and Cypress suite healthy, and not letting short-term velocity quietly become long-term product fragility.
That startup experience sharpened a habit that still shows up in later work: when speed matters, structure matters even more.
Highlights
- Owned frontend delivery for critical product features in a high-speed startup environment.
- Worked from PRD and specs through ticket sizing, implementation, release, and follow-through.
- Acted as a technical bridge between frontend, backend, and mobile teams.
- Maintained testing quality with Jest and Cypress while actively managing debt and prioritization.
