EXPERIENCE Düsseldorf, Germany, Remote
* As a Frontend Architect at Hospitality Digital (HD), a METRO AG subsidiary, I crafted
a suite of React component libraries to enhance six DISH brand products distributed
across 16 countries.
* I defined the structure and principles of the component libraries, fine-tuning the
visual design to better suit B2B systems.
* I streamlined development and design processes for DISH brand products,
eradicating redundancy and facilitating efficient functionality distribution via an
updated component library. This strategic move drastically improved the code-toproduct
timeline, enhancing efficiency by a staggering 600%.
* The unified design I implemented for DISH components amplified brand awareness
and ensured consistency, enhancing the overall customer experience.
* I actively participated in the hiring process for four key positions within the frontend
and backend teams, conducting over 30 interviews to ensure the right talent
acquisition.

INVL Asset Management
(Other, 250-500 employees)
Vilnius, Lithuania, Remote
* As a Software Architect at INVL, a pension fund managing 1.9B€ in assets and serving
over 300,000 users, I was responsible for overseeing the development of robust
internal systems and a user-centric self-service portal.
* I successfully upgraded a legacy self-service app into a more efficient TypeScript and
React-based single-page app, backed by a .NET framework. By applying the Strangler
pattern, I ensured a smooth API transition and led a complete overhaul of the UX
design to enhance user experience.
* To streamline authentication across the organization, I architected a complex
identity and authentication server, utilizing various OAuth methods, including device
flow for qualified e-signature and implicit flow for Azure AD SSO.
* Additionally, I designed a tailored DevOps process based on various Agile
frameworks for the organization to better align with employee culture and improve
overall support.
