What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build production frontend products with high ownership, using React, TypeScript, and AI-first development workflows. I value remote, asynchronous teams where I can solve problems end to end, improve performance, and ship polished developer or user-facing tools.

I've built production React and TypeScript applications for Videfy, Pakistan's Ministry of Energy, and IdeateAI's ImagineArt platform. At the Ministry of Energy, I held 60–70% end-to-end ownership of a national platform spanning six production portals.

I build data-rich dashboards, complex forms, REST API integrations, real-time interfaces, and browser-based tooling. For ImagineArt, I resolved a rendering performance regression by separating React state updates from direct canvas manipulation, and I maintain 80–85% test coverage across production projects with Jest and React Testing Library.

I also independently conceived, built, and publicly launched Naked CSS, a developer tool, and work directly with long-term Upwork clients on complex Fabric.js applications. My AI-first workflow uses Claude Code and Codex daily for implementation, debugging, refactoring, and documentation.
