Summary
Alexandre Mendes is a Frontend Tech Lead with 18+ years building and modernising web platforms, currently driving frontend architecture and delivery for lending platforms in London. He specialises in React, TypeScript and modern frontend patterns—Module/Micro Frontends and Context/Hooks—while increasingly architecting serverless backends with Node.js, GraphQL and AWS Lambdas. Alexandre is a hands-on coach who repeatedly builds teams, runs frontend knowledge sessions, and turns prototypes into production-ready proofs of concept. His work blends UX advocacy with API design and automated CI/CD pipelines, having introduced Module Federation and GitHub Actions workflows at multiple organisations. Equally curious and persistent, he seeks out technical puzzles that stretch his skills and enjoys bringing humour and open-minded collaboration to cross-functional teams. Outside work he’s an avid traveller, cook and basketball player, with a background in mathematics that informs his analytical approach.
