Portrait of  Carlo  Arresgado Tague
01About

I'm a full stack developer with 9 years of experience building web and software applications, with most of that time spent in fintech and digital payments. I work comfortably across the stack, from React and TypeScript front-ends to Node.js and NestJS microservices, and I've spent the last several years at a product company designing and maintaining the APIs and services that power real transaction flows for merchants and consumers.

What keeps me engaged is working on systems that have to stay reliable over time, not just ship once and get forgotten. I care about how services talk to each other, how deployments stay safe, and how a codebase holds up as a product grows. Outside of fintech, I've built across CMS and e-commerce platforms including WordPress, WooCommerce, and Shopify, which gives me a practical range that I can draw on depending on what a product actually needs.
