About Brend

Product instincts, practical engineering range.

Hi, I'm Brend, a full-stack developer from Tirana, Albania. I spend most of my time building with Next.js, TypeScript, and React, with a focus on getting things to production and measuring what happens when they get there.

Over the last two years I have worked on ecommerce platforms and agricultural marketplaces, shipping features that improved conversion rates, cut support overhead, and made teams faster.
