What I'm looking for

I’m looking for frontend roles where I can own scalable React/Next.js architectures, build component-driven UIs with strong accessibility, and optimize performance—especially for data-heavy, real-time experiences.

Senior Frontend Engineer with 7+ years specializing in React, Next.js, TypeScript, and 10+ total frontend experience. Expertise in frontend system design, scalable architecture, real‑time systems (WebSockets), performance optimization, accessibility (A11y), RESTful API integration, and component‑driven development. Consistently delivers enterprise‑grade UX for large‑scale, data‑heavy applications.

At Reva.ai, I’ve owned frontend development for a cloud-native authorization platform using Next.js, TypeScript, and Chakra UI. I integrated REST APIs to ship 10+ major features, built complex UI workflows (policy builder, schema builder, access visualization), and created an AI-powered chat interface with real-time streaming and persistent chat history.

I’m also known for component-driven development and performance optimization. I built a reusable, A11y-compliant component library (10+ components) and improved initial load time using code splitting, lazy loading, and memoization, while strengthening quality through testing with React Testing Library.
