RESUME

Adam Bahr

Software Engineer · Product Builder · Technical Partner

Full-stack software engineer, product builder, and technical partner with 10+ years building production websites, web and mobile apps, e-commerce, local-SEO growth systems, automations, and AI products for founders and small businesses. I work end to end — product strategy, UX, frontend and backend architecture, integrations, deployment, analytics, and the operations after launch — and I've stepped in as CTO or technical partner when a build needed one. Recent work includes custom quoting platforms, e-commerce storefronts, local-SEO and lead systems, and founder-led product builds.

EXPERIENCE

Founder & Lead Developer

2014 — Present

made by adam — Siyrian LLC · Freelance · DMV / Remote

  • Independent software and design studio building production websites, full-stack web and mobile apps, e-commerce, automations, local-SEO systems, and brand-driven digital products for founders and small businesses.
  • Own projects end to end — discovery, product strategy, UX/UI, frontend, backend, integrations, deployment, analytics, SEO, launch, and ongoing support.
  • Translate real business operations into working software — quote flows, lead-capture systems, storefronts, dashboards, campaign tracking, and SEO architecture — across a React/Next.js/TypeScript and Supabase/Postgres stack.
  • Partner directly with founders and operators as a technical lead: clarifying scope, reducing risk, shipping usable versions quickly, and iterating around real customer behavior.
  • Earlier operated as Karmka, running social-media marketing and digital presence for local antique & vintage retailers.

Co-founder & CTO

2022 — 2025

Mallow · AI creative platform · Remote

  • Negotiated and stepped into the co-founder/CTO role, owning technical direction, product architecture, and core build decisions from early concept through working product.
  • Designed and built core product experiences across the frontend, backend, data model, AI workflows, and user-facing creative flows.
  • Led a small intern team while holding product direction, technical standards, and design consistency.
  • Turned an abstract creative and worldbuilding vision into a usable platform with real product structure and scalable foundations.

CTO & Technical Partner

2025

United Dumpsters · DMV · Equity partner

  • Built the full-stack quoting and lead-capture platform for a family-run waste-management business — dumpster rentals, junk removal, demolition, and hauling.
  • Designed a fast quote flow that turns complex pricing and service variables into a simple customer experience while preserving the detail the business needs.
  • Reworked early product assumptions after deeper stakeholder discovery revealed the real field workflow, then rebuilt the system around how the business actually prices and routes jobs.
  • Created conversion-focused service pages and local-SEO structure, and laid the foundation for future automation across intake, routing, and follow-up.

Lead Developer

2016

Boost Me · Social networking startup

  • Sole developer on an early-stage social-networking product — turned the founder's concept into a working application end to end, building account and profile behavior, social flows, and responsive screens across frontend and backend.
