Glency Tirao

Software Engineer & Technical Lead

I build medical and research applications end to end - from React Native and Flutter clients to the TypeScript and Node services behind them. I care about clean abstractions, reusable hooks, and shipping mobile apps that hold up in the real world.

// ABOUT

I'm a software engineer with five-plus years building web and mobile products across startups and client work. These days I lead engineering at ExpiWell, where I build medical and research applications that have to be reliable, compliant, and easy to use.

My happy place is the React Native and Flutter side of things: crafting reusable hooks, setting up boilerplates and CI/CD so teams move faster, and owning releases all the way to the App Store and Google Play. I'm equally comfortable in the backend with Node, Express, and MongoDB when a feature needs it.

Outside of code I produce music (longtime Joji fan), watch a lot of movies, and travel whenever I can.
