What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can own React/TypeScript architecture, micro-frontends, and data-heavy UX—while maintaining strong test coverage and performance. I’m excited to partner with Product and Design and extend into backend/AI when needed.

I’m a Senior Frontend Engineer with 5+ years shipping production React and TypeScript applications, including SPA migrations, micro-frontend architecture, and design system work. I build with a deep focus on test coverage, performance, and data-heavy UI in complex products, and I’m equally comfortable stepping into backend when a feature demands it.

At Alasco, I architected a migration from server-rendered Django templates to a React + TypeScript SPA, reducing page load times by ~40% (4.0s → 2.4s) and eliminating the legacy template layer for 100% of core user flows. I drove frontend test coverage from 35% to 90%+ with React Testing Library and Jest, spearheaded the transition to micro-frontends, and shipped AI-powered solutions like an OCR invoice extraction pipeline and a co-developed financial reporting tool—supported by engineering standards and talks for 40+ engineers.
