Principal / Staff-leaning Full-Stack Engineer (15+ yrs) — TypeScript, React/Next.js, Node (Fastify/Express), AWS
I build and modernize products across US, LATAM, and EU teams (incl. Sweden), with a focus on platform/IAM, reliability, and developer velocity.
- Platform & Identity: authentication/session flows, IAM modules, access control (RBAC/ABAC) foundations
- Full-stack TypeScript: React/Next.js + Node + PostgreSQL
- Reliability & observability: tracing/metrics, error reporting, performance tuning
- Testing & delivery: BDD (Cucumber), E2E, CI/CD, release automation
- AI-assisted workflows: pragmatic LLM integration + local-first indexing/chat experiments
A CLI/tooling project to keep implementation aligned with a plan (especially when working with AI coding assistants): small steps, clear checkpoints, less drift.
Quickstart (canonical command):
npx @mejor/keepmehonest@latest initCommon follow-ups
npx @mejor/keepmehonest@latest --help
# (If you installed it as a direct CLI binary)
kmh --helpIf your setup uses a different executable name,
--helpwill show the available commands.
A Victorian-newspaper style “chronicle” of modern software work: build logs, experiments, and lessons learned across full-stack systems, AI tooling, and engineering initiatives (including workshops, events, and templates/playbooks).
- Focus: decisions + outcomes (what worked, what didn’t, what I’d change)
- Topics: platform work, product iterations, developer experience, AI-assisted building

- IAM modernization: session/auth architecture improvements; safe migrations and deprecation of legacy patterns
- Audit-ready testing: BDD + reporting flows to support compliance needs and reduce release friction
- Klarna work: semantic-release automation; reusable UI foundations; reliability improvements for low-connectivity user flows
- Mentorship & hiring: coached engineers, ran workshops, supported interview loops and technical assessments
