What I do

I don’t just write code. I solve business problems through systems-thinking and engineering rigor.

Front-End Architecture

Scalable React/Next.js systems built for performance and maintainability. I write code that your team will actually enjoy reading.

Design Systems

Bridging the gap between Figma and code. I build component libraries that enforce consistency and speed up development.

Accessibility (a11y)

WCAG 2.1+ compliance is a baseline, not a feature. I ensure your product is usable by everyone, mitigating legal risk.

Performance Engineering

Core Web Vitals optimization. I reduce TBT and LCP to ensure your application feels instant and ranks better.

How I Work

Transparent, collaborative, and iterative. No black boxes. Just clear communication and shipping code.

1. Discovery & Audit

I don’t guess. We start by auditing your current codebase, design files, and business goals to identify friction points.

2. Architecture & Strategy

I define the technical roadmap, stack choices, and component hierarchy to ensure scalability before writing a line of code.

3. Execution & Iteration

Agile development loops. I ship clean, tested code in vertical slices, ensuring you have deployable value at every stage.

4. Handoff & Enablement

I don’t just leave. I provide documentation, loom walkthroughs, and team training to ensure long-term ownership.

Hero Section Background

Not a Commodity.
A Strategic Partner.

I’m Obed Raimundo. I sit at the rare intersection of design and engineering.

Too often, great designs die in implementation, or performant code looks terrible. I bridge that gap. With over a decade of experience, I bring a senior-level perspective to every project—prioritizing long-term maintainability over short-term hacks.

I don’t just build what I’m told. I question requirements, advocate for the user, and build systems that allow your team to move faster long after I’m gone.

FAQ

Common questions about availability, process, and technical fit.

Yes. I am open to high-impact Staff or Principal Front-End Engineer roles at product-led companies. My retainer model is often a great way to ‘try before you buy’ to ensure culture fit.

I respect confidentiality. I do not display private client code or unauthorized designs. I can walk through my problem-solving process and architecture diagrams on a private call.

I am a true hybrid. I can design in Figma and build in React. However, for large scale projects, I work best partnering with a dedicated Product Designer where I focus on the system architecture and implementation.

I specialize in the React ecosystem: Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and headless CMS solutions. I believe in choosing boring, reliable technology that scales.
