Contract Full-Stack Engineer

Infrastructure-automation tooling and platform work for Closer, the operating system behind regenerative co-living communities ("villages").

• Designed idempotent, resumable provisioning workflows — a step DAG over durable state — with full teardown, validated by end-to-end tests against live cloud providers.
• Shipped an Ink terminal UI distributed as compiled single-file binaries and an Elysia control API with token auth and streamed mutation endpoints.
• Contributed fixes to the core platform alongside the tooling: a Next.js 15 / Turborepo frontend and a Node + MongoDB API.

• Built the multi-source data-sync layer that unified content from upstream fingerprinting systems into a single customer-facing portal.
• Owned GCP infrastructure end-to-end in Terraform — Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, Pub/Sub, Eventarc, Secret Manager, and VPC — with GitLab CI/CD pipelines for automated deploys.
