What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities, a collaborative culture, and the chance to work on innovative projects.

With over 15 years of commercial experience in financial services, consulting, and software startups, I have developed a robust skill set that spans product development, UX, customer success, and sales. For the past five years, I have thrived in startup environments, where I excel in unstructured settings and embrace high autonomy. My technical expertise covers the full stack, with a particular focus on frontend technologies.

Currently, I am a Frontend Engineer at Built ai, where I lead the implementation of TypeScript and Material-UI in a financial modeling platform. My previous roles have included leading frontend teams in healthcare and event-tech startups, where I successfully migrated legacy systems and built greenfield applications. I am passionate about problem-solving and continuously learning, always keeping an eye on the evolving digital asset landscape.
