@abdullahsaud
Senior Frontend Engineer specializing in high-performance React/Next.js UI, scaling products, and improving UX conversions.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Frontend Engineer with 8+ years of experience building high-performance, scalable React and Next.js applications. I specialize in optimizing UI workflows, driving technical decisions, and improving performance with modern optimization techniques.
I’ve partnered closely with Product, Design, and Backend teams to ship impactful features in fast-paced environments. At Droppe, I led key UI component development and optimized e-commerce user flows, mentoring 3 junior developers and establishing frontend architecture standards and code review principles.
I focus on measurable UX outcomes—designing interactive workflows that increased checkout conversions from 0.9% to 1.5%, and improving Core Web Vitals. I used Google Lighthouse and Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, INP, TTFB) plus Next.js performance patterns to push a 40% improvement in Lighthouse scores.
Across my roles, I’ve built data-heavy experiences and real-time interfaces: patient management UI work with timezone-aware booking and Stripe integration, stock dashboards with recharts, and real-time updates through WebSockets and React Query. I also developed reusable dashboard components and improved performance metrics by 50% through smarter large-dataset handling and real-time chart rendering.
