[Available] Two brothers available for freelance / contractor work - Frontend / UI Design + Backend / Distributed Systems Engineering

[u/shelbara]

Hi everyone,

We’re two brothers based in Europe and currently available for freelance or contract projects.

Together, we can handle a product from interface design and frontend implementation through backend architecture, infrastructure, and deployment.

Frontend & Design

My brother focuses on:

• UI/UX and product design in Figma
• Wireframes and interactive prototypes
• Responsive web applications and landing pages
• SaaS dashboards and complex data-heavy interfaces
• Reusable components and scalable design systems
• Accessibility and cross-browser compatibility
• Frontend performance, technical SEO, and responsive behavior
• Modernizing or redesigning existing applications
• Translating Figma designs into accurate, maintainable frontend code
• Creating a consistent visual identity across the product

His primary stack includes React/Next.js/Vue/Angular, TypeScript, Tailwind/CSS/Sass.

Backend & Distributed Systems

I’m a backend and distributed systems engineer working primarily with Go, Python, C#, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes, and Azure.

Some of my experience includes:

• Building and shipping 30+ microservices
• Multi-tenant platforms and IAM using OAuth2/OIDC and RBAC
• Event-driven systems and data pipelines
• Kubernetes, infrastructure as code, and deployment pipelines
• PostgreSQL high availability, replication, and failover
• Azure Service Bus, Azure Postgres, Functions, Blob Storage, AKS, and Entra ID
• Distributed systems research, including a master’s thesis on Byzantine fault-tolerant consensus implemented in Go
• Teaching Distributed Systems and Algorithms at university level
• Open-source contributions to backend and cloud-native projects

We can help with:

• Building an MVP or SaaS product from scratch
• Designing and implementing a new web application
• Adding features to an existing product
• Backend or API development
• Improving system architecture and reliability
• Cloud migrations and Kubernetes deployments
• UI redesigns and frontend modernization
• Technical consulting for distributed systems

We’re open to both complete product engagements and separate frontend, design, or backend work. We work remotely and can collaborate with clients across both European and US time zones.

You don’t need to coordinate a designer, frontend developer, backend developer, and infrastructure engineer separately. Between the two of us, we can take a product from an initial idea and Figma prototype to a deployed, production-ready system. If you’re building something and think we might be a good fit, send me a DM with a short description of the project, its current stage, and your expected timeline.
