Software EngineerBuilding modern web applications
I'm Allen Jones, a senior software engineer. I craft fast, scalable applications using React, TypeScript, Tailwind, Next.js, and Node.js.
Currently leading the entire frontend for a live carbon reporting platform used by companies in Germany.
Open to remote frontend roles.
From Curiosity to Expertise
I'm Allen Jones, a software engineer based in Ghana, passionate about building full stack applications that solve real world problems.
With over 5 years of experience, I specialize in crafting clean, maintainable, and high impact digital solutions using React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB. My journey has taken me from contributing to enterprise platforms like GreenHub, a carbon reporting tool at Green Vision Solutions, to building Sheetrocket, a micro SaaS that transforms spreadsheets into live JSON APIs.
I'm deeply committed to performance, developer experience, and product led engineering. My work often involves cloud platforms like Vercel,Azure, and Supabase, and I enjoy tackling challenges from backend data modeling to frontend UX optimization.
Currently, I'm maintaining and building Sheetrocket, while also developing other SaaS applications that are yet to be launched. I'm focused on shipping real products that solve real problems and learning along the way.
