Frontend Systems Architect / Senior Frontend Engineer

Frontend systems architect designing reusable frontend platforms, operational interfaces, and geospatial/data-intensive systems across transport and public-sector environments.

Core Themes

  • Frontend Systems Architecture

    Reusable interface foundations for multi-product platforms.

  • Geospatial & Mapping UI

    Scalable interaction models for map-heavy operational workflows.

  • Operational Data Platforms

    High-context interfaces for publish, monitor, and response loops.

  • Design Systems & Developer Experience

    Shared UI systems that raise quality and delivery velocity.

  • Cloud-Integrated Frontend

    Frontend architecture aligned with distributed cloud services.

  • Testing & Platform Quality

    Risk-focused coverage for critical, high-change workflows.

Leading frontend systems architecture across transport platforms, with emphasis on reusable foundations, operational interface quality, and geospatial data workflows.

GDS / Map Core / Map Kit

View case study

Reusable geospatial platform architecture for transport and operational mapping systems.

  • Designed and evolved a layered Map Core + Map Kit architecture using React, TypeScript, MapLibre, and GraphQL/AppSync to support reusable geospatial workflows across transport and operational platforms.
  • Standardised shared map interaction patterns including layers, markers, clustering, selection flows, geometry rendering, and operational map contracts to reduce fragmentation and improve cross-team consistency.
  • Established frontend platform foundations through Storybook documentation, Playwright E2E coverage, reusable UI systems, basemap strategy, and integration guidance focused on scalability and long-term maintainability.

HAP

View case study

Operational platform for publishing, governing, and consuming transport datasets.

  • Architected the frontend model for publish-review-release workflows across policy, data, and operations users.
  • Designed reusable operational patterns for validation, approvals, ingestion management, and dataset lifecycle governance across Data Exchange and Control Centre platforms.
  • Defined scalable frontend contracts and interaction models for high-volume transport data operations, balancing operational clarity, platform maintainability, and evolving integration requirements.

Central Facility

View case study

Operational interface layer for transport workflows with high data density.

  • Led the frontend architectural evolution of Central Facility, reshaping legacy operational workflows into a more maintainable and scalable platform foundation.
  • Architected operational interfaces designed for high-density transport workflows requiring rapid interaction, contextual continuity, and predictable behaviour.
  • Improved engineering reliability through reusable frontend patterns, targeted end-to-end coverage, and safer operational interaction flows.

Selected Personal Projects

PatternForge

Offline-first chess training platform built around pattern recognition, repetition cycles, and local persistence.

  • Structured training around puzzle sets, cycles, and sessions for repeatable tactical pattern recognition.
  • Designed local-first persistence so progress, review paths, and study sessions remain reliable without network dependence.
  • Built focused repetition workflows—mistake review, cycle comparison, and session continuity—for sustained improvement.
