Senior Frontend Engineer | React/TypeScript Specialist | 15+ Years Building Scalable UIs
Iโm a Senior Frontend Engineer with 15+ years of experience designing and architecting high-performance, user-centric applications using React, TypeScript, and modern tooling. My career has focused on solving complex UI challenges in industries where precision and scalability are criticalโlike multi-tenant booking engines, DDI orchestration, and financial-grade systems.
What I Bring:
Frontend Leadership: Architected React / NextJS applications for global enterprises, ensuring performance, accessibility (WCAG 2 . 0 AAA), and seamless integrations.
Full Ownership: From concept to deployment, Iโve led projects involving TanStack (React Query/Router), testing (Jest/Playwright), and monorepo management (Vite/Yarn/pnpm).
Remote Collaboration: I'm a US citizen and Finland Permanent Resident (authorized to work in US and EU/EEA, no visa required). 10+ years of remote work, including 4+ years via Icelandic EOR (Swapp Agency), making me a turnkey hire for companies worldwide - no local entity or payroll setup required. And US hiring options are also very flexible.
Problem-Solving: Thrive in environments where frontend engineers shape the product, not just the UI. Experienced in debugging complex state management, timezone integrity (Temporal API), and gradual refactoring (Chakra โ Shadcn, Devextreme โ TanStack).
What Iโm Looking For:
Iโm seeking a remote Frontend Engineer role (EU/UK/US/CA time zones) where I can leverage my expertise in React, TypeScript, and scalable architectures to build intuitive, high-impact tools. Ideal roles involve:
Collaborative teams (design, product, backend) focused on user-centric solutions.
Modern stacks: React, TypeScript, TanStack, testing frameworks, and performance optimization.
Flexible employers open to hiring via my EOR or we can talk about options.
