Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGerhard Mostert is a seasoned senior software engineer based in Melbourne with over a decade of hands-on experience designing and delivering web and enterprise applications across the full stack. He’s a pragmatic polyglot who has built microservices and serverless functions in Java/Kotlin on AWS, event-driven APIs with SNS/SQS, and modern UIs in React and Angular while also uplifting legacy AngularJS systems. Comfortable working across frontend, middleware and backend, he combines solution design and documentation with day-to-day implementation—often bridging authentication (OIDC), databases (MySQL, DynamoDB) and shared component libraries. At Australia Post he focuses on scalable API platforms and component-driven UIs, drawing on prior work splitting monoliths into micro-sites and shipping complex integrations for financial and telecom clients. Beyond shipping features, Gerhard has a track record of pragmatic modernization: migrating legacy apps, modularising shared code into NPM modules, and introducing automated testing and containerisation to improve delivery.
