- Developed and optimized core features for American Century Investments including Account Overview, Account Details, Transaction Activity, Beneficiary Management, and Transact modules managing initial feature rollouts within a monolithic React (Next.js) repository.
- Migrated legacy workflows into modern Svelte 5 UI components as part of a client-driven UI enhancement initiative, utilizing a Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) architecture with SvelteKit to streamline data fetching and server-side routing.
- Engineered sophisticated, reusable UI components (such as Custom Dropdowns and Date/Amount Inputs with complex validations) across separate, independent feature repositories within a newly introduced Micro-Frontend architecture.
- Implemented client-side cache optimization and robust state management strategies utilizing Redux Toolkit (RTK) in React and reactive memory-caching in Svelte to efficiently handle heavy data streams, minimize redundant API requests, and speed up UI rendering.
- Integrated robust data security measures by leveraging AES-GCM encryption and decryption standards to safely handle sensitive client investment data across client-server communications.
- Leveraged edge computing environments by utilizing Cloudflare Pages and subsequently transitioning to Cloudflare Workers to run application logic closer to the user, optimizing serverless data processing and reducing latency.
- Executed comprehensive testing strategies by writing automated unit and E2E test suites using Jest, Playwright, and Testim to proactively catch bugs and minimize defects.
- Provided production support by utilizing Kibana for log analysis, systematically diagnosing and resolving high-priority system incidents to maintain platform stability.
- Technology and Tools used: React, Next.js, Redux Toolkit (RTK), Svelte 5, SvelteKit (BFF), Micro-frontends, Jest, Playwright, Testim, Kibana, Git, Cloudflare.
