About Dean Kramer
Principal Front-End Engineer focused on building fast, resilient, user-driven web experiences. I lead UI architecture across teams—overseeing code quality, shaping technical plans, mentoring engineers, and partnering closely with UX to design and maintain shared component libraries and design systems.I design primitive UI building blocks that can scale across frameworks, platforms, and even AI-driven tooling. My recent work includes creating low-code and AI-assisted workflows that let teams generate dynamic UIs, forms, and layouts from config—bridging design systems, React, and machine reasoning.Before that, I spent two years in a high-velocity newsroom shipping scrappy, hacked-together news apps that turned stories into rich visual experiences. It was chaotic and incredible—and taught me to ship fast, adapt quickly, and stay comfortable in ambiguity.I like my websites fast, small, and responsive, and every workday is dedicated to pushing them further. If the tool exists, I’ll use it. If it doesn’t, I’ll build it.Specialties: Modern standards & platform APIs, primitive UI systems, AI-assisted UI generation, design systems, performance engineering, and staying on the bleeding edge without cutting the team.
