Next.js & Python App Overhaul

Job ID: 40497898

Budget: $5 – $7 USD

I’m refreshing an existing production app built with Next.js/React on the front end and Express plus a few Python micro-services on the back. The whole stack runs in Docker containers orchestrated by Kubernetes.

The task is a comprehensive update—user interface, backend logic, and database layer all need attention—but we are not adding new features. Think of it as a deep spring-clean: upgrade package versions, refactor legacy code, tighten security, improve performance, and smooth out UI inconsistencies.

You’ll have Git repo access, an existing CI/CD pipeline, and a dedicated staging namespace so you can work without touching live traffic.

Deliverables
• Updated, lint-free code merged into main with passing unit/integration tests
• Revised Dockerfiles and Kubernetes manifests that build and deploy cleanly
• Clear changelog explaining each modification
• Short recorded walkthrough of the completed work

Acceptance criteria: the app must build with Yarn/NPM and Docker, pass the current (and any new) automated tests, and deploy to staging via Helm with zero regression in functionality.

If you’re fluent in Next.js, React, Express, Python, Docker, and Kubernetes, let me know how you’d tackle the refactor and your estimated timeline.
