Talha Esinti

Frontend Engineer | Product-Oriented Software Developer

Engineering seamless, high-performance products with a user-first mindset

Software development isn’t just about writing code—it’s about solving problems and creating seamless, scalable, and meaningful solutions that deliver real-world value.I’m Talha Esinti, a Frontend & Full-Stack Developer with a strong foundation in React, Next.js, TypeScript, and React Native. With 3+ years of experience, I’ve contributed to both enterprise-scale platforms and early-stage startup products, balancing technical depth with product-oriented thinking.I played a key role in the development of a disaster management system panel for Sabancı (Turkey’s 2nd-largest holding) and led the frontend development of a brochure management platform for Migros (Turkey’s largest supermarket chain), integrating Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), workflow automation, and scalable UI components. These experiences taught me how to deliver solutions at the scale and standards of leading enterprises.Beyond the technical side, one of my strongest assets is adaptability—I quickly adjust to different teams, environments, and project needs, allowing me to integrate seamlessly and deliver value from day one. I also thrive in collaborative, cross-functional teams, combining technical expertise with clear communication to turn ideas into impactful products.I specialize in building high-performance, maintainable, and user-centric applications that integrate smoothly with backend systems, while also contributing to system architecture, backend workflows, and mobile application development with React Native. This versatility enables me to contribute across the full product lifecycle, from MVP prototyping to enterprise-scale systems.What sets me apart is my creative mindset—shaped by a passion for design, storytelling, and problem-solving. I approach projects not only as technical challenges but also as opportunities to craft digital experiences that people can use, trust, and enjoy.💬 Explore my portfolio and let’s connect to create something impactful together.
