What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own frontend architecture and platform standards—building scalable React/Next.js systems, micro frontends, and reliable API integrations—while mentoring teams and driving observability, performance, and accessibility outcomes.

I’m a Frontend Architect and Technical Lead with 10+ years designing and evolving large-scale web platforms using React, TypeScript, and Next.js. I focus on defining frontend architecture standards, creating reusable component systems, and leading integrations across headless CMS and ecommerce ecosystems.

Most recently, I architected a greenfield Connected Worker platform—cutting system downtime by 50%, improving deployment frequency 2×, and scaling across 7+ sites. I applied disciplined architectural governance, performance optimisation, and hands-on engineering leadership to deliver outcomes that engineering teams could sustain.

I’ve built micro frontend architectures (Module Federation) that let multiple teams develop and deploy in parallel, reducing feature time-to-market by ~40% and removing cross-team release bottlenecks. I also partner closely with backend and platform teams on GraphQL and REST API design, contributing to observability strategies, SLO/SLI-aligned monitoring, and reliable data consumption.

Across my roles, I’ve led migrations to TypeScript, improved Core Web Vitals, and implemented A/AA/AAA WCAG accessibility with security-by-design practices. I mentor engineers across cross-functional squads—reducing onboarding time by 30% and improving sprint velocity by 20%—and I bring a delivery mindset recognized through Star Performer and Best Performer awards.
