Juan Pablo Gil
@juanpablogil
Senior Front-End Engineer specializing in React/Next.js, design systems, and DX improvements.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Front-End Engineer with 5+ years of experience building and scaling high-traffic web applications for startups and global companies, including direct contributions to a Silicon Valley e-commerce platform. I bring deep expertise in React, Next.js, and TypeScript, with a strong track record in design systems and Developer Experience (DX) improvements.
At FabFitFun, I architected and delivered a unified UI component library used company-wide, helping standardize interfaces across multiple product teams and reduce duplicate development work. I also led the migration to a new Next.js infrastructure and moved the codebase to an NX monorepo to modernize Node.js versions and enable shared tooling and dependency management.
I focus on measurable outcomes and end-to-end ownership: I built CI/CD workflows with GitHub Actions to automate deployments, QA checks, and preview environments, and I rebuilt subscription reactivation workflows that drove a 32.4% increase in reactivations. Earlier, at Rankmi and Domicompras, I delivered scalable ReactJS/NestJS features, improved rendering performance by 15%, and increased team efficiency by 30%, while also leading training and documentation to raise maintainability across teams.
