Senior full-stack engineer focused on performant, accessible React and Node.js applications.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a senior full-stack engineer with 10+ years building high-performance, scalable web applications across fintech, healthcare, and e-commerce. I focus on frontend-first development using React and TypeScript while delivering end-to-end features with Node.js on the backend.
At enterprise scale I have reduced render times, improved developer onboarding by 20–30%, and ensured WCAG-compliant accessibility across products. I lead adoption of documentation and coding standards, improve tooling and workflows, and deliver near-zero regression production releases.
I enjoy collaborating with design, QA, and backend teams to create maintainable, performant, and user-centric systems, and I prioritize developer velocity, scalability, and accessible UX in every project.
