# Pranav Ruparelia > Software Engineer - Frontend @ Aquent Studios |React.js, Typescript, Micro-Frontend, Agile Development, Fast-Paced Environment | Master's in Computer Science. Location: New York City Metropolitan Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/pranavruparelia My journey as a Frontend Engineer has been driven by a passion for building seamless, high-performing user experiences. Since joining Aquent Studios in 2021, I have been developing and enhancing applications for John Deere’s Sales Center, working with modern technologies like React.js, JavaScript, SCSS, Jest, and React Testing Library in a Test-Driven Development (TDD) environment. In November 2024, I joined the John Deere Service Center team, where I expanded my expertise into Micro-Frontends while continuing to work with a familiar tech stack. My primary focus has been taking initiative by developing features within a micro-frontend architecture, ensuring smooth integration across applications. A key aspect of my work involves leveraging AI-powered solutions to enhance technician efficiency. By integrating LLMs, we enable technicians to quickly retrieve relevant information from complex manuals, reducing troubleshooting time and improving decision-making. To further enhance performance and maintainability, we adopted Vite.dev for optimized bundling and TypeScript to improve code reliability, making the system more scalable and efficient. Beyond just writing code, I focus on optimizing processes and driving innovation, ensuring that every solution we build enhances productivity and simplifies the user experience. I actively collaborate with teams to refine development strategies, mentor junior engineers, and introduce initiatives that bridge the gap between technology and real-world impact. Seeing how our work removes bottlenecks and empowers technicians to focus on what truly matters is what makes this journey rewarding. I thrive in fast-paced, Agile environments, always looking for ways to improve efficiency, enhance usability, and deliver high-quality solutions. Every project is an opportunity to learn, innovate, and create meaningful impact.
