I'm Jigar Vakil — a Senior Full Stack Engineer based in Surat, India, working with global clients on React, Next.js, and Node.js for 7+ years.

My background in quantum computing and cybersecurity research means I architect systems thinking about scale, performance, and security — not just feature velocity. The result: 25% smaller bundles, 22% faster APIs, and 3.2s → 1.1s assessment loads for clients like Keller Williams, Hootsuite, Renaissance Freckle, and Syspos.

— Why work with me
01

No Vague Promises

Every claim backed by metrics: 2.8 MB → 2.1 MB bundles, 22% faster APIs, 3.2s → 1.1s load times.

02

Proven Scale Experience

Shipped production features for Keller Williams, Hootsuite, Renaissance Freckle, and Syspos — across enterprise SaaS, EdTech, real estate, and retail.

03

Results-Driven Mindset

I optimize for uptime, performance, security, and team growth — not just feature velocity.
