What I'm looking for

I seek senior technical roles where I can lead distributed teams, drive frontend architecture and performance optimisations, mentor engineers, and deliver scalable, test-driven cross-platform web applications.

I am a senior/staff-level frontend software developer with over 15 years' experience building high-performance, cross-platform systems and leading distributed teams. I specialise in frontend architecture, performance optimisation and modern TypeScript-driven stacks.

Across roles I have driven measurable impact: increasing runtime performance by over 500%, raising test coverage from 10% to over 80%, and cutting build and development times dramatically via micro-frontends and framework design. I have architected frameworks and delivered multiple production games and apps using Pixi.js, React and WebGL technologies.

I prioritise maintainable code, developer experience and rigorous testing, and I mentor teams to adopt best practices, TDD and tooling such as TypeScript, ESLint and Storybook to improve quality and delivery velocity.
