Work Experience
Senior Software Engineer
OroSoft
- Led a team of 3 UI engineers on the modernization of a flagship precious-metals trading platform serving 10-50 businesses. Acted as front-end lead on a 20-engineer legacy desktop-to-web migration.
- Re-architected the real-time communication layer by shifting WebSocket processing to Web Workers and implementing dependency injection, eliminating thread blocking and disconnections under heavy load.
- Migrated the front-end build system from Webpack to Vite and introduced Vitest, slashing initial application bundle load times from approximately 90s to approximately 10s.
- Shipped AI-powered MCP server connecting Figma to Claude, auto-generating JSON schemas for design tokens for organization-wide reuse.
- Resolved critical state-management and calculation defects while maintaining CI/CD deployments using Docker, Jenkins, and Rancher, ensuring release stability with fewer than 3 QA bugs per sprint.
Software Engineer I
Dezigndia
- Developed responsive, mobile-first web applications using React, Tailwind CSS, and modern JavaScript.
- Built reusable UI components, translating Figma designs into production-ready interfaces with a focus on UX.
- Collaborated directly with stakeholders and design teams to gather requirements, scope technical deliverables, and drive iterative sprints.
Web Developer
iDigitize
- Developed custom CMS and eCommerce solutions using React, CodeIgniter, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
- Implemented responsive, cross-browser UI modules using modern HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, cutting cross-device layout discrepancies.
- Developed a front end for a social media platform using React, Bootstrap, and Redux.
Front-end Developer Intern
Forenthics Consulting
- Assisted senior developers in implementing responsive UI components and bug fixes using JavaScript and jQuery.
- Built dynamic, cross-browser UI components and client landing pages using JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3, and jQuery based on production design specs.
- Developed a project with Codeigniter used for providing custom solutions to IT companies.
Project History
Real-time Precious Metals Trading and Analytics Platform
KEY CONTRIBUTIONS
• Re-architected the high-throughput communication layer by delegating incoming WebSocket streams to dedicated Web Workers, eliminating UI thread blocking and disconnection loops during heavy order book volatility.
• Applied dependency injection patterns to decouple market calculation services from view components, resolving critical pricing state defects.
• Maintained Docker and CI/CD pipelines to ensure continuous delivery with sub-3 bug defect rates per release sprint.
AI Design Token and Schema Generator | MCP Server
I integrated the tooling across internal engineering workflows to automate the hand-off process between UI/UX designers and front-end developers, eliminating manual style mapping and keeping design tokens in continuous sync across web applications. I also reduced the development time from 12 hours to 3 hours.
Enterprise Desktop-to-web Modernization and Migration
KEY CONTRIBUTIONS
• Architected the target UI stack using React and TypeScript, replacing legacy workflows with scalable, modular web interfaces.
• Overhauled build infrastructure by migrating from Webpack to Vite and Vitest, slashing initial bundle load times from about 90s down to about 10s.
• Established automated testing patterns and structured state-management architectures to maintain high release stability, reducing critical pre-release regressions across development cycles
Autonomous AI Fitness Engine & Agentic Coaching Platform
1. Architected an agentic execution pipeline with tool-calling capabilities, allowing the AI to dynamically evaluate historical user data, track fitness milestones, and generate adaptive workout plans.
2. Implemented multi-turn session state management and context window optimization, cutting prompt token overhead while preserving long-term conversational memory.
3. Built resilient fallback strategies, input sanitization, and structured schema validations to prevent agent hallucinations and ensure deterministic recommendation outputs.
Distributed Microservices Architecture & Feature Flagging Framework
KEY CONTRIBUTIONS
1. Architected a modular microservices ecosystem using isolated domain boundaries, standardizing inter-service communication to reduce coupling and eliminate cascade failures.
2. Implemented a dynamic feature-flagging engine, enabling zero-downtime deployments, targeted A/B rollouts, and instant production rollbacks without service redeployment.
3. Streamlined containerized development environments with Docker and CI/CD pipelines, establishing consistent health-check patterns and fault-tolerant service recovery.
