About Asa

I'm a Senior Frontend Engineer with 7+ years of production experience, specialising in React, Next.js, and TypeScript. What sets me apart is that I combine strong engineering skills with a genuine design background — I don't just implement interfaces, I help shape them.

I've built and maintained large-scale applications for international clients including Volkswagen Group, VfL Wolfsburg, and Volta Trucks — products with strict brand, legal, and accessibility requirements, used by thousands of users across Europe. I know what it takes to deliver quality under real constraints, and to keep complex codebases healthy over time.

What I bring to your project:
  • End-to-end frontend ownership — from UX concept and Figma to production deployment
  • React & Next.js applications (App Router, SSR, SSG, ISR, React Server Components)
  • Design systems, component libraries, and scalable frontend architecture
  • Headless CMS integration (Sanity) and WordPress → Next.js migrations
  • Performance optimisation — Core Web Vitals, SEO, accessibility (WCAG)
  • Smooth, intentional UI animations with Framer Motion
I work best on missions involving:
  • Greenfield web products and SaaS platforms
  • Frontend rebuilds and modernisation projects
  • Design-to-code implementation where quality and craft matter
  • Long-term collaboration with product teams and agencies
I use AI-assisted development tools to iterate faster and maintain higher code quality — while keeping full architectural ownership through careful human review.
