Senior React Developer building scalable, high-performance web apps with pixel-perfect UI.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Senior React Developer with 7+ years of progressive front-end experience, specializing in scalable, high-performance web applications. I focus on delivering pixel-perfect interfaces that meet both business goals and user expectations, from design translation to production-ready UI.
In my current role, I develop and maintain the front-end of a healthcare billing and medical records platform. I build complex, data-intensive React components for patient billing workflows, insurance claim management, and payment dashboards, partnering with Laravel teams to define RESTful API contracts and integrate reporting and payment endpoints.
I bring modern state-management and UI-system discipline to every build, using Redux Toolkit (RTK Query) for efficient server-state caching and implementing HIPAA-aware UI practices. I also enforce code quality through reviews, reusable component libraries, and adherence to MUI-based design systems, including role-based access controls, session handling, and PHI data masking.
Previously, I architected and delivered multiple production-grade SPAs using React.js, Redux, and REST APIs. I improved performance by reducing page load time by 35% via code splitting, lazy loading, and React.memo optimizations, while leading a team of junior developers through code reviews and best-practice React patterns across healthcare, media, and fintech projects.
