Few lines about me

I’m a senior front-end engineer with 8 years building fast, accessible, large-scale web applications for enterprise and federally regulated platforms. For the past several years I’ve been the lead front-end engineer on CMS’s QualityNet Platform (with Cadmus Group, formerly Ventera) — a federal healthcare system spanning six mandated programs whose data drives Medicare value-based purchasing and reimbursement decisions worth billions.

I work primarily in React, Angular, and TypeScript on top of Node.js APIs. Right now I’m architecting a Module Federation micro-frontend platform (Vite) that hosts multiple independently deployable React and Angular apps behind a shared authentication shell and a private design-system / component library. I care deeply about design systems, performance, and accessibility — Section 508 / WCAG is part of how I build, not an afterthought.

I’m also building AI into real products — integrating LLMs (Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini) with prompt engineering and schema-validated structured outputs. Open to senior, lead, and principal front-end and full-stack roles, remote or in the DC metro area.

Experience

Overview of my recent work

Senior UI / Front-End Engineer

Cadmus Group — CMS Mar 2019 – Present • Reston, VA (Remote)

QualityNet Platform (QNP) — CMS’s secure federal healthcare-quality-reporting platform across six mandated programs; ~1.3M+ sessions and 3.8M+ pageviews/year; built to HIPAA, Section 508, and FedRAMP / FISMA standards.

  • Architected a Module Federation micro-frontend platform (Vite) hosting multiple independently deployable React and Angular apps behind a shared authentication shell and a private design-system / component library (Storybook).
  • Lead React development (React 18, Hooks, Context API, Redux, TypeScript) — translating Figma designs into reusable components and data dashboards that consume RESTful APIs.
  • Built the React/TypeScript front end for an internal AI-powered semantic document-search tool over CMS policy PDFs — ranked results with source metadata, consuming a vector-search API.
  • Deliver and oversee Angular (through v20) reporting/admin apps using RxJS and NgRx.
  • Cut production build times ~5–10× by migrating to esbuild-based tooling; tuned bundling and load performance.
  • Set front-end standards, run code reviews, and mentor developers; partner closely with UX in Figma.
  • Front-end CI/CD: reusable Jenkins shared-library functions (Groovy), Docker / AWS ECS, SonarQube, and Section 508 quality gates.
  • Deliver full Section 508 / WCAG accessibility (JAWS, NVDA, Axe).

Senior React Developer

UnitedHealth Group / Optum (contract via Pioneer Consulting Services) Jul 2018 – Feb 2019 • Hartford, CT

Built the front end of BEACH (Benefit Eligibility and Coverage Hub), a benefits-browser app for plan coverage, copays, deductibles, and coinsurance.

  • Built fast, responsive UIs in React and TypeScript — reduced page-load times 30% and improved Lighthouse scores 20+ points.
  • Rich data visualizations with AG Grid (large datasets) and AmCharts (analytics).
  • Implemented Material UI components and a reusable component library.
  • Managed state with Redux; cut initial bundle size 40% with lazy loading and route-based code splitting.
  • 80%+ unit-test coverage (Jest, React Testing Library, Enzyme) plus Cypress e2e; built supporting Node.js / Express REST APIs.

Projects

A few things I’ve built end-to-end

Federal Platform

QualityNet Platform

CMS · Cadmus Group (contract) · Lead Front-End Engineer

React 18 · Angular · TypeScript · Module Federation (Vite) · Node.js · Section 508

Lead front-end engineer on CMS’s QualityNet Platform — the U.S. government’s secure system for healthcare quality reporting across six federally mandated programs, serving ~1.3M+ sessions a year. I architect a Module Federation micro-frontend platform (Vite) that hosts React and Angular applications behind a shared authentication shell and a private design-system / component library, and I deliver Section 508 / WCAG-compliant, high-performance UIs. Note: most of the platform is behind secure federal sign-in — the link opens the public site.
