What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can contribute both technical leadership and hands-on development.

At RubiconMD, I led a multidisciplinary Scrum team and helped guide frontend architecture toward long-term product goals. I also drove refactoring and design system improvements to support maintainability, performance, and accessibility.

I contributed to the v1-to-v2 application migration by helping introduce a feature-flag-driven routing layer. I also led Storybook work after its NX migration and contributed to Angular upgrades and the move from Karma/Jasmine to Jest.

At SonoSuite, I was responsible for the frontend area, making technical decisions with the Backend team and creating a new frontend design system with Product and Design. I also grew the team, taking part in hiring and directly managing a frontend developer’s onboarding, training, and performance evaluation.

Across earlier roles, I worked on web products and client projects using JavaScript frameworks and backend technologies. I’m now exploring my next opportunity, where I can contribute both technical leadership and hands-on development.
