Experience
Frontend Engineer
- Contributed to a drone data platform that captures construction site imagery and visualizes it as geospatially accurate 2D orthophotos and 3D mesh maps using React, OpenLayers, and Three.js.
- Improved platform stability and maintainability by resolving critical bugs, upgrading legacy codebases (e.g. React Router v4 to v6, React v17 to 18), and migrating from Redux to Zustand and RxJS to React Query.
- Led the development of a Smart Capture feature for client onboarding, enabling users to select on-screen viewpoints for drones with EXIF data written into the viewpoints to autonomously capture corresponding real-world geolocations.
- Developed a custom color blending and interpolation algorithm to visualize terrain elevation by combining two digital surface models. Enabled smooth, customizable color transitions and realistic hillshade effects, allowing users to define colors for different altitude ranges for clearer terrain analysis of construction sites.

- Joined as a Frontend Intern and quickly promoted to Frontend Developer, then Frontend Lead within a year due to strong product knowledge, technical contributions, and effective collaboration across teams.

The Ancient and Sacred Art of Centering a Div
The blog post is a sarcastic take on the seemingly simple yet often frustrating task of centering a div in web development. It humorously presents various CSS methods as if they were ancient secrets or dark magic. The post covers the "classic" margin: 0 auto;, the "suspiciously easy" modern solutions like Flexbox and Grid, and the "dark arts" of using position: absolute with transform. It concludes by ironically suggesting developers should just give up and use a table, highlighting the comical pain points of front-end development.
