He combines deep expertise in React, functional programming and design systems with a proven track record of shipping low-latency trading UIs at Citadel Securities and Risk/PnL platforms at Bank of America. As a founder he launched and quickly sold a spreadsheet-style grid product that hit Hacker News, and he’s led teams to high test coverage and strong engineering practices.
