Senior Frontend Engineer building secure, high-performance enterprise SaaS with React and Next.js.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Frontend Engineer with 6+ years building enterprise SaaS and fintech applications, focused on modern frontend architecture and long-term maintainability.
I specialize in React, Next.js, and TypeScript, delivering reusable component libraries, performance optimization, and secure API integrations—often while modernizing legacy applications.
In my recent role, I developed OpenBanking (OBIE) applications, integrated REST APIs with Node.js/NestJS backends, and supported production rollouts while migrating MongoDB to PostgreSQL. I also implemented Keycloak-based authentication using OAuth2.0 and OpenID Connect (OIDC), and remediated SAST/VAPT findings using secure coding practices.
I enjoy collaborating across backend, QA, DevOps, and product teams, and I mentor junior developers through code reviews and architecture guidance. I also build user-facing experiences powered by third-party and AI services, including OpenAI API and HuggingFace.
