What I'm looking for

Looking for a product or platform engineering role where I can own frontend architecture decisions, not just ship features — ideally at a startup building something real, where Angular/TypeScript skills and a platform-thinking mindset (reusable systems, performance, scale) actually move the needle.

At Nihilent, I work on the platform team — the part of engineering other teams rely on — designing reusable Angular libraries, Nx monorepo architecture, and shared component systems used across multiple internal banking applications.

Recent work includes leading an Angular 17 → 20 upgrade across shared libraries, building a responsive dashboard that cut initial API calls on load, and optimizing app bootstrap time by trimming bundle size nearly in half (4MB → 2.4MB). I care about clean architecture, performance, and building things once that scale across teams instead of once per app.

Comfortable across TypeScript, Angular, RxJS, and picking up C#/.NET on the backend side. Looking for product-focused teams — especially fintech, SaaS, or platform/infra-heavy roles — where I can keep working close to the foundations, not just the features.
