What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my frontend expertise to create impactful user experiences.

I am a Senior Frontend Engineer with extensive experience in developing scalable web applications. My journey in technology began with a solid foundation in Industrial Engineering, which has equipped me with strong analytical and problem-solving skills. Over the years, I have honed my expertise in frontend technologies, particularly Angular and React, while working with leading companies like VMware and TestGorilla.

At TestGorilla, I successfully implemented a micro-frontend architecture that significantly improved the scalability and maintainability of our applications. My commitment to quality is evident in my achievement of a 0.1% critical error rate among candidates, which was made possible through targeted error reduction initiatives. I thrive in collaborative environments, having worked closely with cross-functional teams to deliver rapid MVPs and enhance user experiences.

Throughout my career, I have led teams, conducted numerous interviews, and contributed to various projects across different domains, including energy and financial technology. My passion for continuous learning and improvement drives me to stay updated with the latest technologies and best practices, ensuring that I deliver high-quality solutions that meet user needs.
