Jelson Chacko

About

Frontend engineer who led a networking-device simulation PoC into a production-integrated product, designing microservice-style containerized architecture and optimizing massive telemetry streams with WebSockets and Kubernetes-based scaling. Built a React+TypeScript network orchestration dashboard (Platina Command Center) and drove quality/performance through unit/E2E testing with measurable browser/API performance metrics and CI/CD automation for rapid monthly releases.

Key Strengths

• Led frontend PoC end-to-end from design through delivery; became integrated full product
• Designed scalable frontend architecture for high-volume telemetry using WebSockets and distributed load on Kubernetes
• Quality at scale via mandatory unit tests plus Playwright E2E tests with performance metrics (FCP, API load times)
• Built complex React/TypeScript dashboard for network device orchestration using Redux and reusable component patterns (HOCs/render props)
• Resolved scalability/performance issues by reworking render/mount patterns and reducing production bundle size (tree shaking/minify/polyfills)
• Shipped frequent releases in fast-paced environment by implementing CI/CD for automated test-and-deploy and rapid QA iteration

Reference Highlights

• sound technical skills (validated by senior technical staff)
• effective collaborator
• works well in a team environment
• performs very well in iterative release environments
• trusted to lead complex tasks with clients and IT partners
• trusted to lead frontend development of a core consumer-facing product
