Eli Elad Elrom

I build software — for other people's companies, and now for my own. Fifteen-plus years shipping for teams ranging from HBO and AT&T to early-stage startups, seven technical books on React, D3.js, and blockchain, and a growing list of products I'm building and running myself.

Working remotely with teams worldwide, not tied to any one city. Outside of code: a PADI diving instructor and a licensed pilot.

What people say

From people I've worked with over the years.

“Eli and I have collaborated on many projects, including streaming video at NBC Universal, contract work for startups, and, most recently, when I hired him for a greenfield project in the insurance industry. Eli played a crucial role in setting up development frameworks (Next.js/NestJS), CI/CD pipeline, and production configuration on AWS. His work ethic is top notch and he makes good on any commitment he undertakes.”

Kevin Maes

Creative technologist & software engineering leader

“Eli is an incredibly knowledgeable and hard-working individual. His knowledge of front-end development and best practices are second to none. I had the privilege of working with Eli on a project where he single-handedly developed the entire front-end infrastructure and middle-layer.”
