About

I am a design engineer passionate about working with React and TypeScript. My interests lie in crafting and sharing design systems, implementing enterprise-level applications, and experimenting with playful components using TailwindCSS. My recent experience was as a frontend design engineer at Rocketium, where I contributed to building Hydrogen, an internal design system powered by React, TypeScript, and Mantine UI. Hydrogen serves as a wrapper design system built with Mantine UI and custom components. I optimized components for faster rendering, introduced micro-interactions and animations using Framer Motion, and participated in the Rocketium 2.0 project, redesigning enterprise-facing features and implementing a dynamic island feature to provide contextual suggestions across the platform. I occasionally write and publish reusable components on my UI kit project, Cookies. During my pre-final year of college, I interned at GitHub as an Engineering Intern. I developed an internal tool for generating QR codes for GitHub events and promotional content using GitHub short URL. This tool was built with React, TypeScript, and Fastify, and was secured via Okta. I also contributed to landing pages for internal tools and educational events, including Octogatosconf. In previous internships and roles, I worked extensively on building design systems and reusable components, designing and implementing landing pages with a focus on design quality and accessibility, and leveraging TypeScript effectively for robust component development. In my free time, I enjoy building side projects, creating intricate components, and documenting the engineering process on my personal website at yashsehgal.com
