12+ Years in Software Engineering | Principal Engineer | React.js | JavaScript | Frontend Architecture I’ve spent 12+ years building production-grade software across companies and products in areas including E-commerce, Travel, Payments, Clean Energy and AI from Expedia Group to Software/Staff/Principal-level engineering roles. But one thing I’ve learned throughout my career is that working hard is not always enough to increase your salary. Your fundamentals, technical depth, problem-solving ability, project ownership, communication, resume, interview strategy and the way you present your experience all matter. • What skills actually matter for your next career move • How to improve your React.js, Next.js & JavaScript fundamentals • How to think beyond tickets and write production-quality code • Frontend architecture and performance fundamentals • How to build projects that demonstrate real engineering ability • How to improve your resume and technical profile • How to prepare for frontend/software engineering interviews • How to identify the gaps holding you back from your next salary jump My core experience includes React.js, Next.js, JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js, frontend architecture, distributed systems, Kafka, Redis, testing, performance and scalable UI platforms. I’ll share practical lessons from 12+ years of real-world engineering not just interview theory
