Experience

GrowthLoop / Senior Frontend Engineer (Full-Stack & Infrastructure Focus)

February 2025 – Present

Architected a non-isolated Vitest infrastructure for 1,900+ tests spanning 200+ files in a shared runtime, reducing CI duration by 93% (15.5m to 67s) via MSW fixtures and strategic dependency pre-bundling.
