What I'm looking for

I want to join a high-quality, collaborative engineering team where I can own end-to-end frontend features, mentor others, improve delivery processes, and work async/remote with modern React/TypeScript stacks.

I am a Senior Frontend Engineer who solves complex product problems with pragmatic engineering, clear planning, and a strong sense of ownership. I thrive in fast-paced remote and hybrid environments and enjoy turning ambiguous requirements into shipped features.

I have led teams and projects end-to-end, owning feature delivery from planning and design discussions to testing and release. I introduced Playwright e2e testing and Renovate company-wide, consolidated multiple repositories into a monorepo, and improved delivery velocity and QA efficiency through mentorship and process simplification.

My technical work spans React, TypeScript, Next.js, React Native, Ruby on Rails, Docker, CI/CD and modern testing stacks like Playwright, Cypress and Detox. I build and maintain component libraries, automate pipelines, and craft stable e2e infrastructures to reduce manual effort and increase developer throughput.

I enjoy mentoring juniors, running 1:1s, and teaching best practices while contributing hands-on as a product engineer. I seek roles where I can own meaningful features, help scale engineering practices, and work with a high-quality team that values pragmatic engineering and continuous improvement.
