A selection of shipped products where I led front-end architecture, design systems, or the full design-engineering loop.
Lead Design Engineer · 2026
Rebuilt the operator console for a vertical fintech, replacing a fragmented four-app surface with one dense, keyboard-first workspace. Cut median task time by 38% and onboarding steps from 11 to 4.
Front-end Architecture · 2025
Designed and built a modular docs platform for an open-source CLI tool. Hash-routed, fully searchable, with a scrollspy TOC and a lightweight syntax highlighter—zero runtime framework.
Design Systems Lead · 2024
Established the shared token system and 120-component library behind a 40-engineer org. Documented contribution workflow, migration tooling, and the QA bar that kept the set coherent as it scaled.
Solo Product Engineer · 2023
A focused, offline-first note editor for technical writing. Plain-text storage, a block model, and a command palette—shipped as a single-page app under 90 KB gzipped.
I’m a software and design engineer who treats the interface as an engineering artefact. My work sits between design systems, front-end architecture, and product—the place where structure, type, and interaction have to agree.
Most of what I ship is dense, operational software: dashboards, internal tools, documentation, and developer surfaces. I prefer hairline borders over shadows, controlled color over decoration, and typography that does the hierarchy work.
Before going independent I led design-engineering at two product companies, built the component infrastructure for a 40-person org, and wrote the contribution standards that kept it legible as it grew.
Occasional notes on design systems, front-end structure, and the craft of building interfaces that hold up.
I take on a small number of engagements at a time—usually design-system work, front-end architecture, or a full design-engineering pass on a product surface. Tell me what you’re building.
