What I'm looking for

I seek a remote or hybrid role where I can lead frontend architecture, mentor engineers, drive test-driven development, and deliver measurable product and business impact.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with over 6.5 years of experience building scalable frontend systems across fintech, SaaS, and manufacturing domains. I specialize in modern React architectures, migration projects, and establishing engineering best practices in remote and hybrid environments.

I led major migrations (NodeJS v10/React v16 → Node v18/React v18) to eliminate critical vulnerabilities and improved application performance and release confidence through standardized unit testing (80–87% coverage).

I architect reusable component libraries and responsive web/mobile UIs using React, React Native, TypeScript, and MUI, which reduced delivery time, bundle size, and processing times while boosting team productivity across multiple teams.

I mentor and onboard engineers, design CI/CD and API integrations, and apply AI-driven enhancements to products; I hold certifications in Generative AI, SAFe Agile, and Secure SDLC and have been recognized with multiple team awards.
