What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build scalable, high-performance frontend products (fintech/blockchain included), take ownership of architecture, lead and mentor teams, and ship to production with real-time features and clean API integration.

I’m a Senior Frontend Engineer with 5+ years of experience building scalable fintech, wallet, VTU, investment, NGO, transportation, e-commerce, and blockchain applications. I’ve delivered 15+ production applications, supported over 4,000 users, and led frontend teams of up to 10 developers while mentoring engineers through code reviews, technical coaching, and project delivery.

I build with React, Next.js, and TypeScript, using modern frontend architecture and performance optimization to improve SEO and user experience (up to 80%). From WebSocket-powered real-time updates and notifications to REST API integration and secure auth with JWT/RBAC, I ship reliable product experiences and manage deployments using Docker, DigitalOcean, Render, and Vercel.
