Experience
PixelPoint Ltd. — Tech Lead & Senior Full-Stack Engineer, PrimeUI
Feb 2025 – Present · France · Remote PrimeUI (primeui.com, launched Feb 2026) is a multi-surface platform for AI-assisted generation of production-ready websites, spanning Studio web app, public API, MCP server, CLI, and code-export pipeline. Lead developer, owning ~70% of platform architecture across all surfaces.
- End-to-end full-stack ownership across the platform: Studio web app (TanStack Start, React, TypeScript), Node.js server runtime, public API, MCP server, CLI, code-export pipeline, and component registry.
- Designed and shipped the code-export pipeline and CLI: generates a production-ready Next.js project repo in ~45 sec and ~1.5 min end-to-end from UI Export to a running local project. The generated codebase is fully owned by the customer (no vendor lock-in), shipped as a standard Next.js project, and pre-configured for 8 selectable AI coding agents.
- Built and published MCP server (
@primeuicom/mcpon NPM): 25 tools letting any external codebase connect to PrimeUI from inside AI coding environments; cross-host compatibility verified across 6 major coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, others). - Cut client-wireframe turnaround at PixelPoint from a week of Figma prototyping to a few hours: deployed responsive prototypes with production-level performance and dynamic interactions instead of static mockups.
- Architected the AI generation layer with multi-model orchestration via Mastra + Vercel AI SDK (10 agents, 17 workflows), per-task model routing across Claude / GPT / Gemini, prompt caching (73% Gemini context-cache hit rate), and WebSocket-based adaptation of streaming model responses to UI rendering requirements.
- Drove team AI-tooling adoption: introduced Claude Code from project start, led team transition to Codex ahead of public release. Built custom developer tooling on top (codex-bee, epic-loop).
FocusReactive — Tech Lead & Senior Software Engineer
May 2019 – Feb 2025 (5 yrs 10 mos) · London · Remote International web consultancy for clients in the US, UK, Europe, and Australia.
- Architected Tipico US backend on Sanity Headless CMS: 5 publishing environments, 3 datasets, white-label architecture for core + state teams. Scale: 122 CMS users, 98 document types, 165K+ stored documents.
- Led migration of 15+ client projects to Headless CMS and commerce platforms (Sanity, Storyblok, Contentful, Payload, Crystallize, Shopify, Hydrogen), restructuring content models and cutting update cycles from weeks to days. Used Claude.ai for inherited-codebase analysis ahead of migration design.
- Built a Claude-based content automation pipeline: JSON translation flow for 190 country-specific Storyblok pages, integrated into publishing and saving ~1 month of manual work.
- Designed and built CMS-KIT, an open-source Headless CMS starter and component library used across 15+ client projects, cutting kickoff from days to hours and accelerating development by ~30%.
- Led technical hiring and team development: designed an assessment mirroring real working conditions, ran 30+ interviews leading to 8 hires, mentored new engineers; drove team adoption of Claude.ai for research, content, and codebase analysis from 2024 onwards.
