I’m putting together the first-release MVP for a web-based marketplace that matches service providers with customers. The scope is lean, but quality can’t slip: the front-end has to feel effortless, the architecture needs to stay clean for future iterations, and the backend logic must be dependable from day one. My immediate priority is User Experience, so every screen—desktop and mobile—should guide newcomers smoothly from sign-up to booking and payment. At the same time, the codebase should be modular enough that adding new verticals or a mobile app later will be straightforward. I’m happy to collaborate with either a tight two-to-three-person crew or solo specialists who clearly state which slice of the build they’ll own (e.g., React UI, Node/Express API, database schema, or overall system design). You’ll be working alongside me and one in-house product owner, so expect quick feedback loops. Key milestones I’d like to hit within the coming month: • Clickable, responsive UI that covers sign-up, provider onboarding, service search, booking flow, and basic profile management • Secure REST (or GraphQL) endpoints that power those flows, plus unit and integration tests • Deployment on a cloud host with CI/CD so we can demo the product at any time When you reply, focus on your relevant experience—especially projects where you balanced tight timelines with strong UX—and tell me exactly which piece of this build you’ll drive. Links to live products or repos that showcase similar work are a huge plus. I’m ready to start as soon as I find the right fit and move fast, so let me know your availability and we’ll set up a kickoff call.
