What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote, local/hybrid Armenia, EOR, direct-contract, or relocation opportunities where I can solve complex frontend problems in React and TypeScript SaaS products, dashboards, internal tools, and API-heavy applications.

I've built and modernized complex React and TypeScript products for Bright Pattern, VK, Yandex, and Sberbank-Technology, including SaaS dashboards, internal tools, payment workflows, and data-heavy interfaces. My work has improved rendering performance by 10–20% and reduced a legacy frontend codebase by about 20%.

I focus on frontend architecture, reusable component libraries, state management, API integration, authentication flows, and real-time updates. I also maintain open-source React and TypeScript packages, and I enjoy untangling unclear problems in unfamiliar codebases.
