What I'm looking for

I am seeking a frontend React role focused on building performant, secure, and user-centered web applications with opportunities for impact and growth.

I am a Frontend Developer with 3+ years of experience building high-performance web applications using React.js, TypeScript, and Redux. I focus on scalable, responsive, and user-focused interfaces for e-commerce and real-time platforms.

I built and deployed a full-featured e-commerce app with React, TypeScript, and Redux Toolkit, integrating Stripe and Paystack to enable 500+ secure transactions monthly. I reduced page load time by 30% through code-splitting, lazy loading, and React Suspense, and implemented role-based authorization with reusable HOCs to improve security and cut duplication by 20%.

I also developed a real-time stock trading app that displays live data via Finnhub API, improving rendering efficiency by 25% with React.memo, useMemo, and useCallback, and reducing state-related bugs by 40% through Redux Toolkit and Context API. I enforce cross-browser testing and WCAG accessibility standards to deliver consistent UI/UX.

I write clean, maintainable code and prioritize performance optimization, authentication, and robust API integration. I enjoy collaborating with product teams to deliver measurable business impact and improved user experiences.
