About

I am a Senior Software Engineer with a strong focus on Front-End development, specializing in React and CSS. I'm passionate about crafting responsive, user-friendly interfaces with smooth animations and clean design. Beyond the front end, I bring a solid foundation in React Native,PHP, NodeJs and full-stack development.

I also have experience as a Team Lead and Engineer Manager, having led teams to deliver high-quality software solutions.

Over the years, I've worked on high-traffic websites and complex platforms, gaining extensive experience with technologies like Next.js, Drupal, and WordPress. My background also includes leadership roles—serving as a lead developer, managing releases, and participating in hiring processes. I thrive in dynamic environments where performance, scalability, and user experience matter.

Experience

  1. Senior Engineer at Engine by Starling

    —
    • Led/contributed to a ground-up rewrite of a core internal web platform, replacing a legacy React 18 application with a modern React 19 stack (TanStack Router/Form/Table, Tailwind CSS v4, Base UI/shadcn), improving performance, accessibility, and developer velocity.
    • Drove an incremental, page-by-page migration strategy to move an entire production application to the new stack while maintaining full feature parity, minimizing risk and avoiding a disruptive "big bang" cutover.
    • Delivered feature parity with the legacy system across complex domains (data tables, forms, permissions, internationalisation), ensuring zero regressions for end users during the transition.
    • Took the new platform from greenfield to production, establishing architecture, coding standards, and reusable component/design systems adopted across the team.
    • Built and standardized a component library and data-table framework (built on TanStack Table) with consistent patterns for filtering, sorting, pagination, and bulk actions, reducing duplicate implementation effort across features.
    • Established testing and quality infrastructure (unit, browser, Storybook interaction, and E2E tests) with CI-integrated validation gates to safeguard the migration.
    • Authored internal engineering guidelines and agent-facing documentation to keep architecture, conventions, and workflows consistent as the team and codebase scaled.
