Jacob Cutshall

Frontend Developer

I build scalable, high-performance web applications using React, Next.js, Svelte, and SolidJS, with backend expertise in Node.js and Electron. I specialize in complex frontend architectures, system integrations, and industrial protocol communications.

About Me

I'm a Frontend Developer with four years of experience building complex, scalable user interfaces. My foundation is in the React ecosystem, but I've also shipped production applications using Svelte and SolidJS. I take on significant architectural responsibilities, driving mission-critical applications where technical excellence and user experience both matter.

Beyond traditional web development, I've built and deployed five Electron-based desktop and touchscreen kiosk applications. I've also led frontend development for a major cloud platform, delivering robust solutions in large-scale environments. Whether it's desktop, web, or mobile, I focus on shipping high-quality software that solves real problems.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me outdoors: fishing, hiking, or working on mechanical projects. I recently taught myself to swap the engine in my truck, a significant leap from avoiding oil changes a few years ago. That same problem-solving drive shows up in everything I do, usually with my two cats watching nearby.
