Senior Lead Frontend Developer

Hekanize • Freelance

Sep 2024 - Apr 2025 • 7 mos

At Hekanize, I worked as the Lead Frontend Developer on a modular and scalable web application built with Vue.js 3, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS and the Lit framework. I led the frontend team by assigning tasks, mentoring developers, reviewing code and ensuring code quality. While my main focus was on the frontend, I occasionally contributed to the backend using PHP (Laravel), and I interacted daily with Docker and AWS. Some key contributions include implementing the frontend of an AI-powered chatbot, building SAML-based authentication flows, designing reusable widget components, developing a responsive navigation menu with hierarchical (tree) features and publishing two internal libraries as private npm packages. I also collaborated closely with the backend and product teams to ensure seamless integration and deliver a high-quality user experience. Why Senior? I independently handled complex frontend features, made key technical decisions and contributed across the entire development lifecycle, from planning to deployment. I didn’t just implement tasks, I took ownership, ensured scalability and consistently delivered maintainable solutions. I worked closely with the manager, took full responsibility for critical features and regularly operated under pressure, especially when client demos depended on work I had completed just days before. Why Lead? I provided day-to-day guidance to the frontend team, conducted code reviews, offered support when team members were stuck and ensured alignment with the product team. ✅ Code reviews 🤝 Mentoring & task delegation 🗣️ Collaboration with product team 🚀 Startup mindset & adaptability 🛠️ Technologies Used: Frontend: ⚙️ Vue.js 3 🧪 Lit Components 💠 TypeScript 🎨 Tailwind CSS 🧭 Vite 🌿 Pinia Backend & Infrastructure: 🐘 PHP & Laravel - occasional use ☁️ AWS - limited involvement 🐳 Docker Tools: 📂 Git & GitHub 🖌️ Figma 🧠 Notion - documentation & task tracking 💬 Slack - daily communication
