About

Professional summary

I am a Senior Frontend Engineer with more than 10 years of experience delivering accessible, maintainable JavaScript and TypeScript products for healthcare, fintech, enterprise, and AI-focused applications.

I build production web interfaces with React, Angular, Next.js, TypeScript, HTML, CSS, and design systems. My work emphasizes reusable components, responsive user experiences, WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility, and strong frontend architecture.

I own work end to end, from product discovery, prototyping, and Figma collaboration through implementation, testing, code review, CI/CD, release management, monitoring, and production support. I am comfortable navigating ambiguous problems and collaborating with distributed cross-functional teams.

I also build AI-enabled products, including RAG applications, agentic workflows, LLM evaluations, guardrails, observability, tool calling, and human-in-the-loop review experiences. I focus on making AI systems reliable, traceable, safe, and useful in real business workflows.

My background includes regulated clinical research, payment platforms, design systems, and accessibility remediation at scale. I enjoy mentoring engineers, improving development workflows, and delivering pragmatic solutions that balance product quality, speed, reliability, and user needs.

Launched a customer-facing Digital Twin using agentic AI, streaming chat, ChromaDB retrieval, structured tool-calling APIs, intent routing, and guardrails. Built an LLM-as-judge evaluation harness with golden question sets and tool-call traces, and created a human-in-the-loop reconciliation workbench with approvals, overrides, audit trails, and jurisdiction-specific configuration-driven connectors.

Software Development Engineer IV Inteliquet, an IQVIA business

Led end-to-end delivery of accessible, regulated clinical-research features across nine health-system sites. Translated ambiguous customer needs into Figma UX/UI designs, TypeScript implementations, testing, releases, and rapid issue resolution in distributed teams.

Built and deployed a shared TypeScript UI component library with more than 10 reusable components, reducing duplicate work by approximately 25% across three product teams. Evaluated Ollama and Llama 3.1 for local AI delivery and introduced Cursor with mandatory review and testing of generated changes.

Product Engineer, Design Systems Inovalon

Led architecture and delivery of an accessible Angular design system and enterprise NPM component library. Applied reusable APIs, SASS/SCSS, HTML patterns, and system design practices to reduce UI development time by approximately 30%.

Defined component specifications and frontend standards for consuming teams, aligning designers and engineers through reusable interaction patterns, accessibility guidance, code reviews, and best practices. Planned versioned releases across Angular versions 8 through 14, achieving zero downstream regressions and reducing upgrade effort by approximately 40%.

Software Engineer Accenture

Delivered revenue-critical browser workflows for an enterprise payments platform processing more than $200 million per month. Built with JavaScript, TypeScript, ES6, React, Redux, Angular, RxJS, HTML, CSS, and REST APIs.

Diagnosed production performance and correctness regressions through profiling, monitoring, and root-cause analysis, restoring payment workflows within SLA. Mentored two engineers in RxJS, state management, lazy loading, and code review, and optimized Webpack builds to improve deployment speed.

Frontend & Full-Stack Engineer Win-Kel

Led 0-to-1 frontend and customer-facing web development at a four-person startup using React, Redux, Node.js, Express, and REST APIs. Owned architecture, user flows, prototyping, proofs of concept, and mentorship for two junior engineers.

Built and remediated WCAG 2.1 AA components across approximately 50,000 Microsoft partner websites, reducing accessibility support tickets by approximately 30%. Developed an Angular and TypeScript schema-publishing tool and device-focused test coverage for smart TVs, kiosks, and mobile devices.

AI Software Engineer - Reconciliation Workbench Independent Project

Owned end-to-end architecture and delivery of a human-in-the-loop reconciliation workbench for multi-jurisdiction tax compliance. Combined accessible UI, interaction design, deterministic guardrails, AI-assisted workflows, and human control.

Designed exception identification, root-cause explanation, resolution recommendation, and approval or override flows. Built reusable workflow components, REST API state handling, exportable audit trails, an evaluations panel benchmarked against seeded ground truth, and Jest and Cypress coverage for critical review workflows.

AI Software Engineer - Digital Twin Independent Project

Built a production-grade digital-twin RAG agent using Python, OpenAI, ChromaDB vector databases, and Gradio APIs. Grounded responses in retrieved source documents and supported forward deployment for practical web projects.

Launched continuous production operations with Gradio interfaces and per-stage observability for reliability, availability, and latency across three pipeline stages. Engineered agentic tool calling, real-time intent routing, guardrails, and production-focused evaluations.
