What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a frontend role where I can build component-driven UIs with TypeScript and Angular, partner with UX on design specs, strengthen design systems, and ship well-tested features—preferably in a collaborative, product-focused team.

I’m a Frontend Engineer with ~10 years of experience building Angular-based web applications. I focus on TypeScript, component-driven UI development, and turning design specifications into production-ready frontend features in close collaboration with UX teams.

In my current role, I built and maintained Angular features for enterprise payroll, tax, and HR applications, working across 5+ frontend codebases. I also developed and maintained a shared UI component library used across multiple applications, implementing responsive layouts and consistent styling directly from Figma designs.

I’m hands-on with quality and maintainability, using Angular testing utilities (Jasmine/Karma) for unit and component testing. I also enjoy improving how teams build by evaluating AI-assisted development tools (Claude, Cline), and I was promoted from Developer II to Developer III based on my technical contributions.
