About Me
I am a Senior Frontend Engineer with over four years of experience designing and scaling TypeScript driven multi tenant SaaS platforms used by thousands of users. I specialize in high performance React applications and resilient data intensive interfaces with secure authentication and role based authorization.
At Hunter Liberty, I led the modernization of legacy systems into fully typed, testable architectures using React, Svelte, and SolidJS. I introduced CI CD pipelines, automated testing, structured state management, and performance optimization practices that significantly improved reliability, deployment speed, and production stability.
Key areas of focus include:
- Reducing critical query response times from over 90 seconds to under 10 seconds through backend optimization and improved data handling strategies
- Implementing authentication and role based authorization to support secure multi tenant account structures
- Designing scalable frontend architecture with code splitting, lazy loading, and bundle optimization
- Owning production performance issues including long running memory leaks in persistent environments
- Collaborating with product managers and customers to translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions • Mentoring junior engineers and guiding frontend technical standards
I am actively seeking fully remote opportunities within established technology or fintech companies where I can contribute to secure, scalable, and high performance web platforms.
