Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohnny Xu is a Senior Front-end Development Consultant with over 13 years of professional experience and a 20-year background spanning digital agencies and corporate teams across Australia and China. He specializes in UI/UX engineering and modern front-end stacks (React, Angular, Gatsby, GraphQL) while also maintaining design chops from a Master’s in Multimedia Design and early career art direction. Johnny has led large-scale redesigns and design-system work for enterprises like Monash University, flybuys and Latitude, migrating legacy platforms to component-driven, accessible SPA architectures. Known as an organized perfectionist with sharp attention to detail, he pairs creative sensibility (animation, illustration, interaction) with rigorous engineering practices including testing, performance and accessibility (WCAG). He frequently mentors peers, establishes front-end standards, and bridges design and development to deliver polished, production-ready products. A less obvious strength: his combined background in sound/video editing and animation gives him a unique edge in crafting immersive, media-rich web experiences.
