Obsessed with pixels, performance and clean code

About

Over 8 years I've gone from designing WordPress layouts to leading frontend architecture as a senior engineer at Atyantik. I care about the invisible stuff: performance, accessibility and the micro-interactions that make an interface feel alive.

Plenty of work. None of it I can show you.

I've spent 8+ years building frontends for clients who, quite reasonably, like their things private. So instead of a gallery, here are the questions people ask me, answered as fully as my NDA allows. Which is not very.

  1. Q.01Redacted

    So, who are your clients?

    Lovely people. Their names are redacted. Their logos are redacted. Their coffee orders I could tell you, but legal says that's covered too.

  2. Q.02Classified

    Can I at least see a screenshot?

    Of course. Here it is: redacted. Stunning, right? I'm especially proud of the redacted.

  3. Q.03Approved by legal

    What's the tech stack?

    React and Next.js, mostly. That part is already on my résumé, so legal let it through. They were visibly disappointed.

  4. Q.04Sealed

    Is any of it actually live?

    Yes, and it's working. I'd tell you where, but then you'd have to sign an NDA as well, and the paperwork is honestly the worst part.

  5. Q.05Off the record

    How long did it take?

    Two sprints, according to the estimate. I'd prefer not to discuss the redacted number.

  6. Q.06Self-inflicted

    Why not show a side project instead?

    Every side project reaches 80% and then I start redesigning my portfolio. You are looking at the result.

“Where are the projects?”

Short answer: under NDA. Long answer: also under NDA, just with more pages.

So I filed a declassification request on your behalf. It went about as well as you'd expect.

Currently practising

Where frontend meets AI.

After 8+ years of frontend work, I'm going deep on AI-augmented development: faster delivery, smarter UX and more intelligent interfaces.

    Prompt engineering

    Writing precise, context-rich prompts to get production-quality code, content and design drafts from LLMs like Claude and GPT.

  2. 02

    AI-augmented development

    Using Claude, GitHub Copilot and Cursor to speed up frontend work, from component generation to debugging.

  3. 03

    LLM APIs in the UI

    Integrating LLM APIs (Claude, OpenAI) into frontend applications: chat interfaces, content generation, smarter autocomplete.

  4. 04

    AI-powered UI/UX

    Exploring AI tools for design, from Midjourney visual concepts to AI-driven accessibility improvements and personalisation.

  5. 05

    Intelligent data visualisation

    Exploring frontend dashboards that use AI to surface insights, anomalies and trends in real-time data.

  6. 06

    Future goals

    Building AI-native web applications, contributing to open-source AI frontend tooling, and joining an AI startup as a senior frontend engineer.
