Senior full-stack engineer building React/TypeScript products and AI-powered web apps for global platforms.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with 20+ years of experience across fintech, government, EdTech, and music technology, most recently delivering features for a global B2B payments and payouts platform. Since 2013, I’ve built customer-facing products with distributed teams across North America and Europe, expanding from frontend into backend services, product engineering, and operational tooling. I specialize in React (10 years), TypeScript, Node.js, and PostgreSQL, with a current focus on AI-powered web applications, LLM integrations, and AI-assisted development workflows.
At Trolley, I helped modernize onboarding by leading the technical implementation of a major onboarding initiative—migrating onboarding workflows to the AiPrise platform and improving compliance validation while reducing onboarding timelines. I also served as a key technical resource for customer-facing applications, partnering with Product and UX, mentoring engineers, and leading accessibility initiatives through architecture guidance, code review, testing support, and implementation direction. Previously, I built and maintained high-impact UI products, including React/TypeScript work for the National Bank of Canada in an SPFx environment and cloud-native frontend development using AWS Amplify, GraphQL, Storybook, and Auth0.
My career combines early experience delivering mission-critical government systems at SUNAT with more than a decade working with North American organizations and distributed teams. Since 2013, I’ve collaborated remotely across North America, and later built my career in Canada across fintech, banking, SaaS, and technology companies. This experience has shaped a pragmatic engineering approach centered on product delivery, collaboration, mentoring, and quality. I’ve also served as a technical reviewer for Manning Publications on AI-powered web application development and completed UC Berkeley’s Technology Leadership Program.
