I buildproduction-readyweb appsfast and well.
Hi, I'm Thomas. I ship modern web & mobile products end-to-end, from idea to staging to scale. Four years deep in React, Next.js and Node, coding by the ocean in the Canary Islands.
What I'm good at.
Web apps, end-to-end
From design to production: custom Next.js and React applications with auth, dashboards, payments and real-time data. Built fast, and built clean.
Backend & infrastructure
Node + Postgres APIs, Supabase, Firebase, CI/CD pipelines, Docker, CDN/caching. Boring stuff that doesn't break at 3am.
Mobile apps (iOS · Android)
Cross-platform React Native apps, on the App Store and Play Store, with offline mode, native modules, and OTA updates.
Performance, SEO & analytics
Lighthouse 95+, Core Web Vitals in the green, technical SEO, GA4 and GTM. Sites that load fast and get indexed properly.
Headless CMS · Sanity · Payload
Sanity Studio and Payload CMS integrations so non-technical teams can publish without breaking the build. Editor-first content models.
Motion & 3D interactions
GSAP, Three.js and WebGL for the "wow" factor: entrance animations, scroll sequences, 3D scenes. For the projects where working isn't enough.
Domains, DNS & SSL
Domain registration, DNS configuration, SSL certificates, redirects, email routing. I spent a year at GoDaddy doing exactly this, so I know it well.
AI integration
LLMs, RAG pipelines, AI agents, chat interfaces: plugged into your product or built from scratch. OpenAI, Gemini, LangChain. When it makes sense, not just because it's trendy.
A few things about me.
I came to code late, and on purpose
Kitchens, aviation, customer service, then a bootcamp. No CS degree. I learned to ship under pressure before I learned to program, and it shows in how I work: calm, direct, done.
I want to understand the whole machine
I don't like depending on a service I don't understand. So I host my own server, my own database and my own CI. Not for the résumé, to know exactly what holds what, and to be able to fix it myself.
I care how it feels, not just that it works
Timing, weight, the way a page moves when you scroll it. Motion and 3D are the part I keep coming back to, and I'll spend the extra hour on a transition nobody asked for.
The tools I lean on, daily.

Materia Prima
Editorial Magazine + Headless CMS
Independent digital gastronomy magazine launched from zero. Payload CMS v3 embedded inside Next.js 16 (one codebase, one container) so the editorial team publishes articles, manages categories, tags, contributors and a newsletter autonomously. Auto-WebP image optimization, calculated read time, rich Lexical editor with inline images and YouTube embeds, and zero SaaS cost: self-hosted on a private VPS with persistent Docker volumes.
Gran Canaria Frontón King
World Championship Site + Live Event PWA
Two products for the final stop of the IBC World Tour bodyboard championship in Gáldar. A five-language marketing site (programme, riders, travel guide with an interactive map, registration) and a PWA that answers "is it on today?" for a fourteen-day waiting period: live heats synced from SurfScores, a conditions engine fed by swell forecasts, push notifications, fantasy league, QR challenges, photo gallery with moderation, rider and sponsor areas with separate auth, and a full back office. Self-hosted Supabase, Docker on a private VPS.

Montadores App: Field Worker Native App
Native iOS and Android app for field installation teams. Covers the full workflow: assigned routes, GPS-validated arrivals, photo evidence and digital signature capture, incident reporting, and push notifications. Offline-first, with automatic sync when connectivity returns.
What the people I've shipped with say.
Thomas integrated offline mode, iOS support, and BLE communication on our mobile app, then led the Supabase migration that replaced Bubble.io and cut our costs significantly. His React Native depth, independence, and creative problem-solving made him an outstanding asset to the team.
Armand Petit
CTO · Osly Solutions
Thomas stood out not only for his technical expertise but also for his eagerness to help others. Working across FlutterFlow, React Native, React, and PostgreSQL, he consistently demonstrated strong problem-solving skills and a deep understanding of the development process.
Kayla Kenney
Front End Developer · Frigate Global
Coder by trade. Nomad the rest of the time.
Thomas, 30-something, fullstack developer based in the Canary Islands, where summer never ends.
Originally from Nantes, France, based in Spain for the past 6 years. A few lives before code (kitchens, aviation, customer service, all over the world) until I fell into it for good. Self-taught first, then bootcamp, now shipping real things every week. I work remotely, whatever the time zone.
