# Sukhvinder Singh > AI Orchestrator | Prev. Staff/Principal Level Frontend Engineer Location: United Kingdom, United Kingdom Profile: https://flows.cv/sukhvinder I build and ship products using AI as my primary engineering tool — not as a novelty, but as a serious workflow that produces production-grade systems. Recently I built a complete iOS app with no prior Swift experience, using AI to handle the language gap while I focused on product decisions, architecture, and code review. That project reframed how I think about what’s buildable: the bottleneck isn’t writing code anymore, it’s knowing what to build and whether the output is good enough. My background is 15+ years as a frontend-leaning engineer and engineering leader across fintech, DeFi, and trading platforms. I built the UI for a perpetual trading platform, designed trade analytics tooling across on- and off-chain data, and worked closely with backend teams on a hedging engine that generated over $1m in revenue in six months. At Orbs, I’m working on the human layer of autonomous DeFi agents — the interfaces, developer experience, and orchestration that make agentic systems usable. My stack is TypeScript, React, Next.js, and Node.js. My AI tooling includes Claude Code with multi-agent workflows, MCP integrations, and structured planning frameworks for autonomous code generation. I’m interested in roles where AI-native building is the expectation, not the experiment — particularly in trading, DeFi, or agentic product teams. Open to senior/principal IC roles, engineering leadership, or focused consulting on trading UIs and AI-augmented development. ## Work Experience ### Software Engineer @ Orbs Jan 2023 – Present | London, England, United Kingdom • Built white-labelled decentralised perpetual trading platform, enabling complex DeFi trading flows with real-time market data. • Designed and delivered a secure in-browser signer that underpins delegated signing workflows across multiple web3 apps. • Implemented a trade visibility and analytics tool combining on-chain and off-chain data to support operations and business intelligence. • Worked closely with backend and quant teams on a perpetual hedger that generated more than $1m revenue within six months. • Provided frontend architecture guidance and SDK support for Web3 partners integrating Orbs technology. • Worked in the Research & Development department testing and trialling the latest tech in Web3 space ### Lead Frontend Engineer @ Noah Jan 2021 – Jan 2023 | London, England, United Kingdom • Lead frontend engineer and founding team member for a Bitcoin wallet delivered as a PWA. • Delivered core features including authentication (WebAuthN, Cognito, later Auth0), on-chain and Lightning payments, and a QR scanner that handled Bitcoin, Lightning and custom marketing codes. • Built a rewards and quests system that drove user engagement through badges and perks. • Integrated Sardine AI for KYC and contributed to a Discord bot for community engagement. • Worked across the stack (React, GraphQL, Node, Golang, AWS, Serverless, AppSync, DynamoDB) to ship features end to end. ### Engineering Manager @ Trade Ledger Jan 2020 – Jan 2021 | London • Promoted to Engineering Manager within two months of joining. • Led the UK engineering squad, managing 12+ engineers day to day while remaining hands-on with key parts of the lending platform. • Hired and onboarded engineers during a critical delivery period, focusing on culture, career development and team output. • Made decisions on what work to prioritise, delegated effectively and ensured delivery against commitments. ### Senior Frontend Engineer @ Trade Ledger Jan 2020 – Jan 2020 | London, England, United Kingdom • Joined to work on Trade Ledger’s lending platform, delivering new features for global enterprise clients. • Introduced frontend best practices and helped define the code architecture using TypeScript, React and GraphQL. ### Lead Software Engineer @ Code Outcome Jan 2016 – Jan 2020 | London, United Kingdom Founded and ran Code Outcome, a consultancy focused on fast, secure and scalable product delivery for startups and scaleups in fintech and adjacent sectors.
