Summary
Tyler Sayles is a versatile software engineer and freelance consultant with nine years of experience building high-impact web and mobile products, from early iOS and Haskell microservices to modern Vue + TypeScript applications. He’s helped scale an app with over 100 million downloads, led a company-wide Playwright E2E testing overhaul that materially cut manual QA hours, and optimized CI/CD to reduce deployment time and infrastructure costs. Comfortable across front-end, back-end, databases (Neo4j/Postgres/Dynamo), and design systems, he also has hands-on experience migrating platforms (Shopify → Magento) and integrating headless CMS solutions. A multilingual consultant (English/Swedish), he pairs technical depth with copywriting roots and freelance work for clients including Pfizer and AstraZeneca, plus an active set of open-source projects. Notably, many of his production wins began as self-taught pivots—he was hired as a copywriter and became an engineer who still prefers shipping pragmatic, cost-saving solutions from his living room.
