Senior / Staff-level product engineer with ~12 years of experience building and shipping production software. Strong frontend focus with deep full-stack experience. I’ve led zero-to-one builds, shipped high-reliability systems, real-time collaborative tools, and large-scale search (1.6M+ searches/month).

Menu Engineering (https://github.com/TravisBumgarner/menu-engineering)
I have a friend who manages their restaurant's menu via an Excel doc. Tabular data does not play well with a menu's tree structure. So I'm building them an app to more easily build and analyze the menu.
Fast Classifieds (https://travisbumgarner.dev/marketing/classifieds)
A lot of the jobs I'm looking for are on smaller company job boards only. It takes me about an hour or two each time I want to browse all the sites I have bookmarked. I made a little app that automates the process and reduces the time down to about 5 minutes to look through the new posts.
I'm starting to shift my energies towards building more hardware and less web/mobile apps for side projects.
I'm currently working on Dice of Sending - for when you want to roll physical dice but you play DND online. This is mostly just for fun with my DND group.
SEEING WORK | Boston, Massachusetts, USA & Mexico City, Mexico | Remote (NA time zones)
Full stack Zero to One Software Engineer & Designer - I turn early-stage ideas into working prototypes.
I love photography and I love design. Often, my color palettes are inspired by photos I've taken. I wanted an app that would allow me to create such color palettes and browse creations by others. It's just in alpha and I've got a long list of functionality and improvements to work on but I wanted to share out now.
Front-end leaning Senior Full Stack Engineer - TypeScript, React, Node, GraphQL, AWS. Preference for early stage startups building 0 to 1 experiences. Additionally skilled with doing design and product management as well.
I fell in love with Mexico because of the colorful architecture. I've found that many buildings would make for good color palettes. So I made an app to convert 145 photos of mine into color palettes.
