Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJonathan Harrell is a Senior Frontend Engineer based in Brooklyn with nine years of experience crafting polished, performant user interfaces for startups and product teams. He’s led UI architecture and component libraries at companies like Vowel and InVision, shipping React and Vue systems, theming solutions, and Storybook-driven design systems that improved load times and developer productivity. At Vowel he built AI-driven meeting summarization interfaces and a clip editor, and earlier work spans internal tooling, CMS-driven marketing sites, and reusable UI libraries. Trained as a designer, he blends visual craft with front-end engineering—mentoring teams, diagnosing performance and memory issues, and refactoring legacy stacks along the way. Unusually for an engineer, he also has a long background in teaching and multimedia production, which informs his focus on clear UX and documentation.
