Hi, I'm Santiago Morales — I build APIs, design systems, and ship full-stack.

Full-Stack Developer

About

Developer who loves backend — APIs, databases, system design — and ships frontend when needed.

API Design

Clean, documented, scalable endpoints

Data Modeling

Schemas that make sense

Full-Stack

End-to-end when the project calls for it

I gravitate toward the backend — designing schemas, writing queries, building services that hold up, and I've shipped full-stack projects and know my way around React/Next.js. Open to other stacks, but most comfortable with TypeScript, Java/Spring, and the AWS/Vercel/Cloudflare ecosystem. Looking to grow in a team environment.
