What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build accessible, scalable B2B SaaS products with modern frontend technologies while collaborating closely with product, design, QA, and backend teams.

I've built customer-facing B2B SaaS platforms at Novatekra, Rapid Finance, and SimpleSolve, turning complex business workflows into responsive, accessible web applications. My work spans React, TypeScript, Next.js, Vue.js, Angular, REST, and GraphQL integrations.

At Novatekra, I led a three-person team and reduced regression defects by 40% through automated testing and Git-based workflows. I also improved Lighthouse performance and accessibility scores by 35% through code splitting, lazy loading, semantic HTML, and CSS optimization.
