Adam Henson

About

I'm a Staff-Level Software Engineer and Frontend Architect with nearly two decades of experience building high-impact digital products. My career has been shaped across a wide range of NYC-based companies — from fast-paced startups to established enterprises — where I've consistently delivered scalable, reliable solutions in complex environments.

Deeply collaborative by nature, I specialize in turning ambiguous ideas into clear technical direction. I lead system design efforts, document architectural decisions, and write production-grade code across the stack. With deep expertise in component-driven UI, I craft refined, performant interfaces using tools like React, Next.js, and Tailwind, while also bringing advanced backend and systems knowledge to the table.

I'm an enthusiastic advocate for AI-augmented development and believe in using modern tools to elevate both productivity and product quality. My core stack includes React, Next.js, Tailwind, TypeScript, Node.js, Docker, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, and GraphQL — technologies I've used to ship resilient systems at scale.
