Senior Frontend Engineer building scalable React products with TypeScript, performant UX, and ownership.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Frontend Engineer with 7+ years building scalable web products across adtech, insurtech, and HR-tech. My strength is React ecosystems—especially TypeScript—and component architecture that keeps teams moving fast without breaking delivery quality.
At Micro Ad Indonesia, I owned the full frontend rebuild of the Ads Performance dashboard, migrating a fragile legacy codebase to a modern React + React Query + Ant Design stack. That work cut data transfer latency from 6s+ to under 1s and resolved top recurring client complaints within a single quarter.
I also drove measurable product impact by reducing partner dashboard complaints by 90% through a flexible dynamic chart system. In the same role, I standardized early-stage prototyping to cover 80% of requirements upfront, reducing mid-sprint scope changes and rework.
Since 2022, I’ve expanded into fullstack development on independent projects, taking on backend API design, database integration, and deployment alongside frontend. I’ve delivered high-performance experiences end-to-end, from Next.js SEO fixes and 100% mobile responsiveness to React SPA migrations, Nuxt-based component libraries, and Gatsby marketing sites.
