Senior Frontend Engineer modernizing web apps and leading end-to-end delivery.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Frontend Engineer with 7 years of experience building, scaling, and modernizing web applications using React.js, Vue.js, Ember.js, and Node.js. I combine hands-on technical depth with team leadership to deliver reliably and raise the technical bar.
At Purple Style Labs, I lead a team of 3–4 frontend engineers across a portfolio of 45+ luxury e-commerce brand websites serving 1.8M+ monthly active users. I’ve owned frontend architecture end-to-end, including driving a 100k+ line Vue2→3 and Webpack 3→5 migration in ~4 months, reducing build times by ~50% and improving developer velocity and load performance. I also initiated containerized CI/CD from scratch with Docker and GitHub Actions, enabling multiple production deployments per week with repeatability.
Previously at Freshworks, I owned end-to-end delivery of major Freshteam releases and helped drive a 12–15% increase in average user time on platform. I improved maintainability and test coverage, while mentoring teammates through code reviews, engineering best practices, and sprint/roadmap collaboration—so shipping stays fast, safe, and scalable.
