I'm helping Demandbase, a leading SaaS-based B2B marketing technology startup, develop their large-scale React and Redux applications. Demandbase is a large-scale web application, and an extremely successful SaaS product. I've helped the team build many user-facing features, re-architected parts of the application, and created + implemented highly-reused shared UI components throughout a suite of applications. I've worked hard to help make the front-end application code highly reusable, and I've fixed a lot of technical debt.I also developed their main NPM UI Library with Webpack (includes collection of UI components for entire company), and the UI Library app. This has helped the company scale extremely well.Bonus: architected and deployed the main Modal component for their products. This was a significant source of frustration for engineers as the original solution wasn't scalable. The Modal solution I implemented was highly reusable, customizable, and significantly more scalable. This saved a huge amount of time for the engineering team.
