What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a Senior Frontend Developer or Team Leader role where I can lead Angular microfrontend delivery, mentor engineers, and drive measurable UX and accessibility improvements within a feedback-driven team culture.

I’m a Senior Frontend Developer with over 8 years of experience, combining deep Angular expertise with strong interpersonal skills. I’ve contributed to building enterprise-grade frontends and I actively support open-source through Shields.io contributions, including SVG generation and API metrics.

At Nordea, I use the latest Angular versions to deliver an Enterprise Angular platform for SME banking across Nordic markets. I build and maintain Angular 17–21 microfrontend modules, collaborate on REST API integration and error-handling patterns, and help raise quality through code reviews, knowledge sharing, and onboarding—while keeping accessibility (WCAG) and testing at the center of delivery.

Previously at Fiserv, I developed and maintained Angular 11–14 for a financial application used across multiple countries, coordinating with Business Analysts, Data Architects, Backend Developers, and Database Developers through security audits and strong unit-test coverage. Earlier roles included building an Angular 8 KLM Travel Package Deals frontend (with NgRx/RxJS and Cypress E2E tests) and an Angular 5 AI document comprehension product, plus a React/ES6-focused implementation for e-commerce—shaping my ability to bridge UX, engineering rigor, and business outcomes.
