I work as a Senior Frontend Engineer within the Permitting & Licensing platform, leading front-end architecture initiatives for large-scale, data-intensive products used by government agencies across the United States.

The framework was built to support high-volume payment workflows and enable new providers to be onboarded through configuration.

• Designed the architecture and implementation of the Shopping Cart / bulk payments experience, allowing users to group multiple record steps and pay in bulk, significantly reducing up to 300 manual actions per permit/license and improving end-to-end operational efficiency.

• Built complex, data-heavy UIs including multi-step workflows, wizards, and bulk actions, handling large volumes of data with advanced data fetching and pagination strategies using TanStack Query and GraphQL.
