What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead frontend engineering, drive test-driven development and architecture, mentor teams, and build scalable user-centric web platforms in collaborative, innovation-focused environments.

I am an Engineering Lead with 11+ years building high-performance, scalable web applications, currently leading a distributed team of five engineers for Client Advisory at UBS AG Singapore. I focus on modern frontend stacks, test-driven development, CI/CD optimization, and delivering intuitive, user-centric interfaces.

My work includes designing web portals that centralize scheduling, note-taking, document management and meeting insights for client advisors, implementing an interactive PDF annotation system with PSPDFKit, and contributing reusable micro-frontend component libraries to improve UI consistency and accelerate delivery.

I continually drive technical innovation through PoCs, migrations to micro-frontends (Module Federation), and by instituting clean-code practices, thorough code reviews, and automation to improve scalability, performance and maintainability.
