What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative engineering role leading frontend teams to build performant, SEO-friendly React/Next.js products, mentor engineers, and drive measurable user growth.

I am an engineering manager and frontend specialist with 8+ years of experience leading high-performing teams and delivering React/Next.js products that improve user engagement and business metrics.

I have a track record of engineering reusable component monorepos, publishing internal NPM packages, and driving frontend performance improvements such as Core Web Vitals and Lighthouse optimization.

I built production features end-to-end, implemented generative AI proofs-of-concept for internal tooling, and improved page load times and user growth through optimization and CDN strategies.

I mentor teams through code reviews, enforce coding standards, and use modern testing and tooling (Jest, React Testing Library, Redux DevTools, Git) to maintain high code quality while focusing on SEO, performance, and scalable architectures.
