What I'm looking for

I’m looking to deepen my use of AI-assisted workflows like Claude Code and become more efficient with them. I enjoy hard product problems where UX and engineering meet, and I’m happy to learn new stacks on the job.

At Surfe, I led the initial technical groundwork for migrating the Chrome extension to the Chrome Side Panel, including its architecture and routing. I also led frontend projects through release for the Surfe Chrome extension and web app, a sales prospecting platform with CRM integrations.

I set up Datadog observability at Surfe with source maps, logging, dashboards and monitors, helping the team catch production bugs early and debug them faster. I also ran code review, live-coding and system design interviews for frontend candidates.

At UserZoom, I designed and implemented a real-time collaborative text editor using ProseMirror and WebSockets. I also defined and documented frontend conventions and worked with product, UX and backend partners to shape features from early requirements.

At EnjoyHQ, I led a frontend re-architecture around Redux and Redux-Saga, and set up a testing environment for unit and integration tests. Earlier, at Move Technologies, I developed dispatch and location-aware booking systems; at Blip.pt, I worked on the Betfair Exchange website and its migration from YUI to AngularJS.
