Biography

I'm Rashed — Senior Frontend Engineer.

Building production-grade platforms across SaaS, EdTech, and transport technology. I work in React, TypeScript, and Next.js with a focus on map-driven interfaces, micro-frontends, design systems, and performance.

Currently part of a team migrating a real-time operations map to a modern shared platform. I've shipped across large monorepos, GraphQL and REST integrations, and test-driven UI delivery — at scale.
