I'm Isaac Anyimiah, a senior frontend engineer specializing in Next.js, TypeScript, and Node.js, building user-centered, scalable applications. I've delivered interfaces for high-profile clients including Pizza Hut, Premier Inn, Mulberry, and Omaze.
Most recently at One Rent, a car rental marketplace, I worked across both the customer-facing website and the internal admin dashboard on a nine-developer team. I owned the digital vehicle-inspection tool that rental staff use to record damage at handover, built it offline-first so it works in parking lots with weak signal, and was the sole frontend developer on a new monthly car-subscription product, building every screen from company pricing flows to staff review.
Before that I spent nearly three years at Topflight Digital as the sole frontend developer, building and shipping their entire website and running the A/B testing program across landing, listing, and product detail pages. I introduced a React-based testing workflow that brought component-based development into experimentation, so complex test variations became faster to build and easier to maintain, and built the in-house statistical tool that replaced evaluating those results by hand in a spreadsheet.
The thread through all of it: I look for the step someone is doing manually because nobody built the tool yet, and then I build the tool.
How I work
What working with me looks like.
- 01
I own the whole surface
I've been the sole frontend developer on a shipped website and on a new product line. Give me the problem and I'll build every screen it needs, flag what's risky early, and ship. You don't have to chase me.
- 02
I'm useful in week two
Three months at One Rent: I owned the inspection tool, shipped a subscription product solo, integrated AI listing generation, and rolled i18n across two surfaces. I read the codebase, find who to ask, and start shipping before the onboarding doc is finished.
- 03
I measure instead of guessing
Two years of running A/B tests taught me to distrust a good-looking result. If a change is supposed to move conversion or bounce rate, I want the significance calculation, not a screenshot of a dashboard on a good day.
- 04
I build for the bad conditions
Weak signal, dropped connections, a reload halfway through a task, a user who reads none of the six supported languages the same way. The happy path is the easy half; I plan for the rest of it up front.
