Senior Frontend Architect
Nicolò Zanetti
Angular, React, TypeScript, architecture, performance, maintainability, and delivery.
I help product and enterprise teams design, modernize, and ship complex frontend applications on solid technical foundations.
Remote-only from Conegliano, Italy, for senior frontend, frontend architecture, and product engineering work with European and international teams.
Selected work
Featured projects
Nimlat
The strongest personal project here: a local-first desktop application for managing an anime library with local data, external ingestion, and a polished product interface.
- Purpose
- Organize, track, and complete a personal anime library without depending on a central backend.
- Technical approach
- Electron, React, TypeScript, and SQLite, with typed IPC boundaries, local image/data caching, background ingestion, and external tracking sync.
- What it demonstrates
- Desktop architecture, local-first data, operational UX, performance work, and technical ambition in a real personal product.
Tarot
An in-progress product case study for a tarot learning game with modular lessons, card interpretation, and AI-assisted readings.
- Purpose
- Explore a learning product where content, interpretation, and gameplay need to support each other without becoming noise.
- Technical approach
- Angular for the app shell, progressive lesson modules, AI-assisted reading flows, and Phaser.js gameplay prototypes.
- What it demonstrates
- Product design, modular frontend architecture, AI experimentation, and the discipline to present unfinished work honestly.
What I do
Frontend architecture that ships
Frontend architecture that ships
I structure Angular, React, and TypeScript applications with clear boundaries, sustainable state management, performance, and reusable component systems.
Complex and data-intensive UI
I build interfaces for large datasets, operational workflows, virtual tables, dashboards, and enterprise products where UX and architecture have to hold together.
Technical leadership and mentoring
I help distributed teams through reviews, coding standards, mentoring, pragmatic architecture decisions, and clear communication with technical and business stakeholders.
Refactoring and modernization
I reduce technical debt, duplication, and architectural anti-patterns without freezing delivery, especially in monorepos, micro frontends, and enterprise codebases.
From product idea to production
I move ambiguous product needs toward released software: UX, backend integration, testing, accessibility, CI/CD, and performance optimization.
