What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Frontend / Full Stack Developer with over 8 years of experience in delivering scalable and high-performing web applications. My expertise lies in using JavaScript, TypeScript, React.js, Node.js, and Python, among other technologies. I have a proven track record of leading full software development lifecycles and optimizing CI/CD pipelines, all while fostering cross-functional collaboration in Agile environments.
Throughout my career, I have focused on cloud-native development and microservices architecture, which has allowed me to enhance performance tuning and implement test automation effectively. My recent role at Workday involved leading the frontend development of dynamic dashboards, where I successfully reduced page load times by 30% through performance optimization techniques. I thrive in collaborative settings, working closely with UX/UI designers to create pixel-perfect interfaces that enhance user experience.
