Frontend Engineering

• Directed full‑stack GIS map development

  Directed full‑stack GIS map development, overseeing PostgreSQL, Mapbox, ReactJS, and NodeJS to deliver an integrated solution.

• Presented 200 UI/UX improvements

  Presented 200 UI/UX improvements for the GIS map application, boosting revenue by 10x through enhanced software features.

• Designed the product's UI and UX end to end

  Designed the product's UI and UX end to end — directory grids, dual card/table views, live requirement validators and breadcrumb navigation.

• Set the platform's founding technical decisions

  Set the platform's founding decisions in the weeks after the repository opened in November 2025 — the layering, database‑first data access and the zero‑warnings bar — and they still hold nine months on.

• Built a test suite across Go, SQL and browser

  Built a layered automated test suite — 981 Go tests, 543 frontend and browser specs, 494 SQL behavioural tests — with mutation testing, property‑based tests and an accessibility gate.

• Built the operator back‑office for the platform

  Built the operator back‑office — around 40 admin routes and 128 components covering claims, moderation, feature flags, cache and diagnostics — so the platform can be run without database access.

• Built company ownership claims and adjudication

  Built company ownership claims end to end — a user claims a company, an administrator adjudicates, and an approval rewrites the authorization graph that decides who is allowed to edit what.

• Built the social layer: posts, feed and groups

  Built the platform's social layer — posts, feed, groups, mentions, a follower graph and an occasions digest — on the same function‑first data layer as the rest of the product.

• Built a 22‑linter commit gate

  Built a commit gate of 22 one‑line linters plus five that earn a paragraph, with no warning tier and no inline suppressions permitted, covering HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, YAML, Markdown, shell, links, spelling, secrets and typography.

• A safety net that no longer costs half an hour

  Cut the site's browser‑driven quality gate from 1,636 seconds to 615 by scheduling its checks longest‑first through a worker pool bounded to four lanes, after measuring that alphabetical order cost 320 seconds against 224.

• Linted the 10,242‑line quality gate itself

  Brought 10,242 lines of quality‑gate JavaScript under a formatter and a linter after establishing it was the largest body of code in the repository and the only one nothing read, fixing 13 findings and suppressing none.

• Adopted Swift 6 strict concurrency over C

  Adopted Swift 6 complete strict concurrency with no actors, bridging a blocking C event loop to the main actor through one producer, one consumer and one ordering — after establishing that a task per event loses the ordering the interface depends on.

• Rewrote error messages to stop blaming users

  Rewrote the application's error messages against a written tone standard after a refused sign‑in blamed the user for mistyping when the provider actually required an app‑specific password, and covered it with a test that names the provider.
