Senior software engineer specialising in React and TypeScript frontend.
What I'm looking for
I'm a senior software engineer with experience leading frontend and full-stack delivery across enterprises and startups, having contributed to organisations including Aesop, ANZx and multiple scale-stage startups.
I specialise in Frontend Engineering with a strong focus on React, TypeScript, Next.js and design systems, and I advocate for MACH/headless architectures, microfrontends and strategies that reduce feature cycle time and costs.
I have led technical strategy, mentored engineers, introduced observability and AI-assisted development practices, and delivered measurable outcomes such as large platform migrations, re‑architectures and cost savings.
