Developer at agentic-engineer.online
agentic-engineer.online is my publicly testable live demo and at the same time the platform where I show my work. Originally created as a recruitment trial task, I have since continued to run it as my own demo, learning, and product project — on a Hetzner VPS behind a Cloudflare tunnel, through a multi-stage AI-orchestrated deploy pipeline with snapshot rollback. If a deploy step breaks, the system falls back to the last clean snapshot, the script is adjusted, the test repeated — empirical, test-driven, without hand tuning.
- Technically behind it: Python and FastAPI, an OpenRouter model cascade, SQLite persistence, and Cloudflare edge tuning.
- I am the developer and the strictest customer of my own AI work in one person — what started as a prototype has become a tool I use every day and against which I test my own products.

Alexandru G.
Last position:
Principal Cloud DevOps Architect at BP
In my role as Senior Cloud DevOps Architect for BP, an oil and gas company, I had the mission to migrate the Electric Vehicle Charging platform of the EV Division from on-premises and Azure to AWS cloud, resulting in a hybrid multi-cloud, multi-tenant SaaS solution.
Deployment with Kubernetes for the application layer meant provisioning Kubernetes clusters managed by EKS and AKS, with a focus on integrating them into a multi-tenant environment. This integration was achieved by using Kubernetes namespaces and access controls to ensure data isolation and privacy enforcement.
In the database layer, we chose an RDS instance with PostgreSQL to support the backend infrastructure of our applications. Tenants shared the same RDS instance, but each had a dedicated schema.
To ingest near real-time data from physical charge points (CPOs), as IoT devices, via the OCPI protocol, we ran into significant delays with batch processing. As a result, we built a real-time streaming data pipeline using Apache Kafka, while prioritizing an event-driven architecture.
Led collaboration across multiple internal teams, external vendors, cloud providers, and on-site partners to integrate over five systems into a unified solution.
Achievements:
- Successfully designed and implemented hybrid multi-cloud solutions, integrating multiple cloud platforms (AWS, Azure) with on-premises infrastructure, using Site-to-Site VPNs, Firewalls, and Load Balancing.
- Led the migration of on-premises infrastructure to multi-cloud, multi-tenant infrastructure, resulting in 30% faster processing times.
- Migrated workloads from VMware and Hyper-V environments to cloud-based VMs, leveraging cloud-native services to optimize performance, cost efficiency, and scalability.
- Designed a multi-tenant Kubernetes platform leveraging the Kubernetes ecosystem, using Karpenter for dynamic EC2 node provisioning, KEDA for event-driven pod autoscaling (e.g., Kafka message lag), and Rancher for centralized monitoring of multiple clusters (EKS, AKS, or on-prem K8s), replacing Microsoft-centric Azure Arc management service.
- Designed and implemented Python-based FastAPI microservices as part of the EV core-backend on AWS EKS application layer, powering data ingestion and customer analytics pipelines.
- Developed asynchronous, event-driven APIs (Python-FastAPI) for real-time integration with CPOs, supporting OCPI 2.3 and OICP protocols.
- Designed and implemented a secure, production-grade Azure Databricks platform using Terraform, ensuring scalability and cost efficiency.
- Migrated on-premises ERP to a hybrid Dynamics 365 architecture with ERP hosted locally and CRM running in Azure, integrated via Azure Arc.
- Automated CI/CD pipelines for Databricks notebooks and jobs using GitHub Actions & Databricks CLI, reducing deployment time. Reduced infrastructure provisioning time by 70% by automating cloud resource deployment with GitOps.
- Ensured compliance with internal audit and data governance standards (GDPR) through OAuth2/OIDC-based authentication and fine-grained role-based access controls.
- Developed a Zero Trust security model, enforcing least-privilege access and microsegmentation, enhancing security posture and compliance with GDPR and NIST.
- Built interactive analytics dashboards in Amazon QuickSight, integrating data from S3 and Redshift to deliver real-time business insights and visualizations with embedded access for multi-tenant users.
- Led cloud security assessments and full-lifecycle cybersecurity integration during M&A, covering AWS, Azure, IAM (Entra ID), and data protection, while aligning security posture with NIST, ISO 27001, and GDPR across hybrid and cloud-native environments.
- Reduced cloud costs by 64% for a client's dev environment by implementing automated start/stop schedules for EC2 and RDS instances via AWS CDK with EventBridge Scheduler or AWS Systems Manager.
Tech stack:
- Infrastructure as Code: Terraform, AWS CDK, Ansible.
- Containers: Kubernetes on EKS, AKS, Docker.
- Streaming Data Processing: Kafka to Confluent Cloud, after AWS MSK.
- Frontend: TypeScript, React, NextJS, Hooks, Styled Components.
- Backend: Python with FastAPI, also Node.js with NestJS.
- Database: Aurora on PostgreSQL with TypeORM, RDS on SQL Server, Azure Databricks full setup and administration, ETL Pipelines.
- CI/CD and GitOps: GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, ArgoCD.
- Monitoring and Observability: Prometheus and Grafana.
- Virtualization: Hyper-V, VMware Cloud on AWS, Azure Migrate.
- ERP Systems: Odoo, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central on Azure, integrated with Azure Arc.
- Networking: Site-to-Site VPNs, AWS Direct Connect, Azure ExpressRoute, Firewalls (AWS Network Firewall, Azure Firewall).
- Security: IAM, NIST Framework, Zero Trust Security, AWS WAF, AWS Shield, GuardDuty.

About the technology
Mobile app foundation
React Native is an open-source framework for building native iOS and Android applications with JavaScript or TypeScript and React. Teams share much of the application code while still producing platform-specific mobile experiences. It suits consumer apps, internal tools, commerce products and service applications that need one coordinated mobile codebase.
Core ecosystem
Strong React Native work combines the framework with React, TypeScript, navigation, state management and reliable API integration. Specialists may use Expo for streamlined development or configure the React Native CLI when deeper native control is required. They also work with Xcode, Android Studio, Metro, CocoaPods, Gradle and native Swift, Objective-C, Java or Kotlin modules.
Typical deliverables
- Cross-platform iOS and Android applications
- New screens, navigation flows and reusable UI components
- Native integrations for payments, maps, camera, notifications and authentication
- App-store releases, automated testing and continuous delivery
- Performance improvements, upgrades and production bug fixes
When to hire expertise
Companies bring in freelance React Native specialists when a mobile product must launch across both major mobile operating systems without maintaining entirely separate feature teams. External expertise is also useful during a migration from native apps, an Expo or React Native upgrade, or a period of performance and release instability. Clear product goals and access to existing repositories help the specialist contribute quickly.
Quality signals
Look for professionals who can explain trade-offs between shared code and platform-specific behavior. Strong specialists test on real iOS and Android devices, understand rendering performance, manage permissions and offline states, and keep native dependencies current. Their work should include maintainable components, predictable state flows, accessible interfaces and a release process the internal team can operate.
Collaboration and handover
React Native projects work well remotely when product, design, backend and mobile responsibilities are documented clearly. A specialist should communicate decisions about Expo, native modules, build configuration and supported device behavior in language the wider team can use. Before handover, request setup instructions, test coverage, environment guidance and a practical plan for future framework upgrades.
Frequently asked questions
Questions about React Native? Start with the answers below.
React Native is used to build mobile applications for iOS and Android with React and JavaScript or TypeScript. It supports shared product logic while allowing native interfaces and integrations where platform-specific behavior matters.
React Native is a strong choice when a team already uses React or wants to share application code across iOS and Android. Flutter offers a different rendering model, while fully native Swift or Kotlin applications provide the deepest platform control but usually require separate implementation paths.
A capable React Native professional commonly works with React, TypeScript, navigation, state management, REST or GraphQL APIs and automated testing. Useful platform skills include Xcode, Android Studio, Swift, Kotlin, build pipelines, app-store delivery and mobile security.
The right level depends on the product risk and the state of the codebase, not a fixed number of years. A simple feature can suit a specialist comfortable with React Native fundamentals, while payments, real-time features, complex animations or native integrations call for proven production experience.
React Native projects are often suitable for remote collaboration because code, design files, issue tracking and build pipelines can be shared. Teams should provide device-testing access, clear release ownership and regular communication with backend, product and design professionals.
React Native teams often choose Expo when they want a streamlined setup, managed builds and a broad collection of supported capabilities. A specialist should assess required native modules, build controls and deployment constraints before deciding between Expo services and a more manually configured setup.
Ask for examples showing behavior on both iOS and Android, not only screenshots or shared UI code. Review performance on real devices, accessibility, error handling, test coverage, dependency choices and whether the specialist documents native configuration clearly.
A React Native freelancer may work across interface code, API integration, native modules, testing and release automation. They should clarify the existing React Native version, Expo or CLI setup, supported devices, backend dependencies, design system and who owns app-store submissions before starting.
The average hourly rate of freelancers who have used React Native in their recent projects is 91 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 726 € based on an 8-hour working day.
