Software Engineer IIJune 2024 — Present

Owned the full frontend rebuild of Ledger Entries — the page accountants use daily — as sole frontend engineer across 55+ tickets and 80+ PRs, architecting a multi-view AG Grid system; the rebuilt experience reached an 82% adoption rate.
Diagnosed a cross-customer performance bottleneck through profiling — cut search latency 98% (1.7s → 0.03s) and modal load time 70% (2s → 0.6s) in a single PR, resolving simultaneous production escalations from three enterprise customers.
Identified a systemic issue — the frontend eagerly loading 50,000+ tags crashing the mobile app — and drove the Tag Optimization initiative across 4+ squads, becoming its top code contributor.
Delivered the complete Public API onboarding flow as sole frontend engineer across 11+ PRs — the first touchpoint for every API-integration customer.
Resolved 100% of assigned customer escalations (6/6) through systematic debugging including race conditions and null-reference crashes.
Authored 165 PRs across 5 projects in the first year — removing 28+ stale feature flags, migrating modules to TypeScript, and shipping a shared design-system Table component.
