👋 Hi, I'm Brolin Remunyanga

I'm a full stack developer focused on Ruby on Rails with experience building features in early-stage SaaS products. I currently work remotely at a startup (Jalappeno) building MVPs for store management, marketing automation, and link-sharing tools.

My experience lies in writing well-tested, maintainable code and integrating modern frontends (React/Next.js) with Rails monoliths and API backends. I've also contributed to performance improvements, architecture cleanup, and developer tooling in a resource-constrained startup environment.


🧱 What I Actually Do

  • Develop features for a Rails + React monolith powering store management and marketing apps.
  • Maintain a Rails API backend with OAuth 2.0 (Doorkeeper) for a Next.js frontend.
  • Setup CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, integrated Stripe and Google Analytics 4.
  • Wrote test suites: RSpec (unit), Capybara/Cucumber (integration), Cypress (end-to-end).
  • Built features like:
    • Soft-delete recovery (Recycle Bin)
    • History & revert (PaperTrail audit logs)
    • Infinite scrolling & lazy loading (Turbo)
    • AI PDF/image analysis for store setup

🧪 Tech Stack

Backend: Ruby, Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL
Frontend: React, Next.js, Stimulus.js, Turbo, TailwindCSS
Testing: RSpec, Capybara, Cypress, Cucumber
DevOps: GitHub Actions, Sidekiq, New Relic
Other: OAuth (Doorkeeper), Stripe, Google Analytics 4


🧠 What I’m Learning

  • Deeper architectural patterns (service objects, API boundaries)
  • More advanced testing strategies
  • Scaling apps beyond MVP

🛰️ Open to Collaborations

I’m open to contributing to Rails-based open source projects, especially those focused on building products for small businesses or dev tools. If you’ve got something interesting — let’s connect.
