What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration, encourages innovation, and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a dynamic and detail-oriented software engineer with over 10 years of experience in building high-performance web applications and user interfaces. My expertise lies in modern frontend technologies such as React, JavaScript, and CSS, and I have a robust background in Agile environments. I take pride in mentoring junior engineers and fostering best practices in frontend development.

At Liventus, I developed scalable user interfaces using React and TypeScript, significantly enhancing user engagement. My role involved implementing responsive designs and conducting thorough code reviews to ensure high standards of quality. I also led initiatives to refactor legacy code, improving maintainability and scalability, while actively participating in Agile processes to meet project milestones.

Previously, I worked at Sunflower Lab and Cleveland Clinic, where I honed my skills in integrating third-party APIs, developing testing strategies, and collaborating with cross-functional teams. I am passionate about creating user-centric designs and continuously improving application performance, and I strive to contribute positively to the developer community through open-source projects.
