Hi, I'm XC.
Exiequielle John Frias, AI-Native Frontend Engineer based in Manila, Philippines. At BillEase, I ship customer-facing Vue/Nuxt + TypeScript flows for KYC, payments, and credit products — and I build with Claude Code, Cursor, and MCP every day.
The human behind the code

Currently at
BillEase
Software Engineer
I'm Exiequielle John Frias, a frontend-leaning full-stack engineer with 8+ years of shipping production web apps. Most people just call me XC.
At BillEase, a Philippine fintech, I build customer-facing flows with Vue, Nuxt, TypeScript, and Tailwind — KYC onboarding, ID and liveness verification, account recovery, payments, and a new credit line product — and maintain production Python APIs.
I build with AI agents by default — Claude Code and Cursor, with MCP integrations for Figma and ClickUp. AI handles the repetitive parts so I ship faster; architecture, UX decisions, and code review stay in my hands.

Software Engineer
BillEase
