What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build high-impact frontend architectures and developer platforms—improving performance (Core Web Vitals), scaling design systems, and mentoring teams, with opportunities to ship AI-assisted developer tooling and technical SEO products.

I’m a Senior Frontend Engineer with 10+ years of experience building React and React Native platforms used by hundreds of engineers and millions of users. I specialize in frontend architecture, developer platforms, performance optimization, design systems, and scalable web infrastructure, and I enjoy turning complex UI and platform needs into maintainable, scalable solutions.

At UrbanCompany, I architected and led internal React Native and frontend platforms that let teams launch multiple customer experiences without writing frontend code. I also drove frontend performance initiatives (bundle splitting, Atomic CSS, lazy loading, and optimized asset delivery), defined Micro Frontends standards, and mentored engineers through architecture reviews, design discussions, and code reviews.

Since SEP 2024, I’ve been building as Founder & Principal Engineer, creating an AI-powered SaaS application that helps developers design scalable and secure software systems. I developed the frontend with React, Next.js, and TypeScript, integrated OpenAI APIs and Firebase services, and deployed the application end-to-end—while continuing to publish deep technical content on SEO engineering and state-of-the-art developer workflows.
