What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote global product teams where I can bridge complex engineering and product goals through scalable full-stack architecture, strong UI/UX, web optimization, and business-focused improvements.

I've built and led full-stack platform work for Altruist Corp, including replacing a complex GraphQL Mesh with a Koa.js Backend-for-Frontend gateway that resolved data synchronization issues and improved API performance.

I drove TanStack Query adoption and a frontend-wide refactor toward a modern RESTful architecture. I also built Retool tools and financial report generators that automated file parsing, transaction approvals, and gain/loss analysis for operations teams.

At Thrive Market, I built analytics instrumentation with Amplitude, partnered on Optimizely A/B tests, and contributed to a component-driven CMS, product catalog, and shared cart. Earlier at Globant, I built travel-commerce applications and design systems for iSeatz and American Express, then helped deliver e-learning features for Great Minds.

I thrive in remote global environments where I can connect complex engineering decisions with product goals, with a focus on UI/UX, scalable architecture, web optimization, and business-focused enhancements.
