Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAlex Brohman is a Montreal-based front-end engineer and marketer with 10 years of experience building customer-facing web interfaces and growth-focused digital campaigns. He has shipped scalable Remix and TypeScript applications for white-label SaaS, led theming and customization efforts, and improved developer collaboration through process and communication improvements. His background bridges UI engineering (notably contributing front-end theming and mobile navigation improvements to the popular Vanilla Forums project) with practical marketing skills like copywriting, email and social advertising. That blend lets him translate product and design intent into polished, brand-consistent front ends while keeping performance and developer ergonomics in mind. He’s comfortable working across monorepos and multi-app front ends, and brings a rare mix of creative direction and hands-on CSS/JS expertise.
