Currently at Keolis Group (remote) — accessibility at scale, axe in CI
Frontend Engineer at Keolis Group (remote), based in Barcelona, with 5+ years building web products used by millions across 15+ countries, including Decathlon's e-commerce platforms in Europe. I mostly work with React, Next.js, Svelte and TypeScript, and I care a lot about accessibility, testing and keeping codebases maintainable. I'm comfortable owning features from start to finish in fast-moving teams.

My Philosophy
Code Quality
I write clean, maintainable code and keep learning new tools and techniques to build better solutions. Good code saves time and makes everyone's job easier.
Collaborative Growth
I work best with others. I enjoy teams where we share knowledge, communicate openly, and help each other grow through feedback and collaboration.
