Founding Frontend Engineer & Lead | React, Next.js & Design Systems | Enterprise SaaS | Building AI-native frontend tooling (MCP)

About

I'm a frontend engineer with 6+ years building and scaling production web applications — currently leading frontend architecture and a growing engineering team at an enterprise SaaS company, which I joined as its first frontend engineer. My focus is on the systems that make teams faster: I design and own component-driven design systems, lead migrations from monolithic frontends to micro-frontend architectures, and build the internal tooling that lets product teams ship without reinventing UI foundations every time. I've taken a frontend function from zero to a mature, adopted design system used across an entire product line, and now lead and mentor the team doing the same. Recent work spans enterprise B2B SaaS (compensation planning, HR tooling, dashboard and reporting builders), and independent projects at the intersection of frontend and applied AI — including building and publishing an MCP server (DesignIntel) that lets AI coding tools work directly from real Figma design tokens. I build fast by working closely with AI development tools (Cursor, Claude Code) — and I've applied that same approach to shipping full products with LLMs at their core, including justhustle.in, an AI-driven resume-to-job-description matching platform I built end-to-end solo. Core stack: React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS. Also comfortable across WordPress, Shopify, and headless CMS platforms (Strapi, Contentful, Webflow) for teams that need that flexibility. Open to conversations about senior/lead frontend roles, systems-level frontend work, and design-system ownership.
