About
Manikandaraman
I'm a full stack developer and freelancer with 8+ years building products end to end — from discovery and UX to APIs, databases, and launch.
I partner with founders and product teams who need someone who can own the stack: React and Next.js on the front, Node and PostgreSQL on the back, and the glue in between (auth, payments, analytics, CI).
My work is cinematic on the surface and disciplined underneath — accessible UI, performance budgets, and maintainable architecture so your product scales after I ship.
