Nethan Gabriel B. BagasbasNasipit, Agusan del Norte — Open to remote/relocate

Full-Stack Developer

Software that ships.
Systems that hold up.

I'm a full-stack developer from the Philippines — 1,000+ hours of self-taught practice and 30+ projects behind me, plus a Best Thesis in computer science. I care about the boring, important things: clean types, clear boundaries, and code that survives its first user.

Open to work

I built my full-stack foundations from the ground up.

I started web development through The Odin Project in late 2023 and learned the hard way — building a project alongside every new concept, one step at a time. No copy-paste, no shortcuts. That discipline is why my foundations still hold up today, and why they carry over to whatever technology I pick up next.

My primary stack is TypeScript, React, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Prisma, Redis, and Zod — now joined by NestJS and MongoDB (NoSQL). I like clear boundaries between frontend and backend: well-structured systems with clean types, built for performance and developer experience.

Right now I'm interested in, exploring, and learning AI agents — using them to accelerate my development workflow and learn faster.

DevLog

Jul 2026 – Aug 2026Live

Developer activity tracker that logs time sessions against projects, DSA problems, articles, and snippets, then turns that raw activity into streaks, statistics, charts, and daily reports. Built as a pnpm monorepo with a decoupled NestJS REST API and React SPA sharing a common types package, JWT + Google OAuth authentication, and BullMQ + Redis background report generation.
