What I'm looking for

A remote frontend role where I own the interface end to end — component architecture, design systems, rendering strategy across SSR, CSR and static generation, and measured performance and accessibility. I build the Figma system then implement it in React and Next.js. Open to contract or full-time, with a team that documents what it builds.

I’m a frontend engineer and product designer with 5+ years shipping production web products from Port Harcourt, Nigeria — a cross-border marketplace, e-commerce platforms, a UK logistics portal, a 4,000-user election system, and the website for the first and only ISO 15189-accredited medical laboratory in South East Nigeria. I work the full delivery path: Figma design systems, React and Next.js implementation, WordPress builds and the site operations that keep two live sites running, and LLM integration using the Claude and OpenAI APIs. Measured results from recent work: a Figma component library and design system that cut design-to-dev handoff time by 40%; a performance overhaul that took Google PageSpeed from 90 to 98 on mobile and 68 to 86 on desktop, cutting mobile load time by over 70%; and a Lighthouse accessibility score of 91 on an election platform used by 4,000+ students and staff. Open to remote frontend, WordPress and product design roles, on contract or full-time.
