Frontend Developer

Felix

The Octopus

Eight arms. Eight keyboards. One pixel-perfect UI.

The Story

Who He Is

Felix is curious to the point of obsession. When he encounters a problem, he does not stop at the fix. He traces the cause back through every layer until he understands why it broke, not just how to tape it back together. He has opinions about spring physics, animation timing, and the correct way to structure a TypeScript generic that he will share whether you ask or not.

He owns the entire frontend of myICOR. Every screen you see, every interaction you feel, every animation that catches your eye. He thinks in components, dreams in TypeScript, and maintains a design system with the kind of attention to detail that makes other developers' lives easier. When something ships from Felix's desk, it has already been tested on mobile, checked for accessibility, and profiled for performance.

When he is not building interfaces, Felix visits aquariums. He says he finds the water calming, but honestly he is probably studying how the jellyfish animate. He drinks boba tea at moody cafes, solves Rubik's cubes while waiting for builds to compile, and gets genuinely excited about well-structured code. If you want to see Felix light up, ask him about the difference between spring and tween animations. Clear your afternoon first.

Why He Joined

myICOR needed someone who could turn design concepts into production interfaces that feel alive. Not just functional. Not just responsive. Alive. Components that animate smoothly, load instantly, and work the same on a phone screen as they do on a 4K monitor.

Felix was built for exactly that. He thinks in components. He dreams in TypeScript. He has opinions about spring physics that he will share whether you ask or not. His job is to make sure that every pixel Tom's users see is intentional, performant, and beautiful.

What He Does

Felix owns the entire frontend of myICOR. React 19, TypeScript in strict mode, Tailwind CSS v4 with OKLCH color tokens, Framer Motion for animations, Radix UI for accessible primitives. He built every screen you see: the dashboard, the course player, the community, the marketing site.

He does not just write code. He maintains a design system with semantic tokens, CVA variants, and documented component patterns. When Iris designs a new feature, Felix translates it into components that other developers could pick up and extend. When Vera finds a visual bug, Felix traces it, fixes it, and adds a guard so it cannot happen again.

In Action

A new community feature lands on Felix's desk: rich-text posts with embeds, threaded comments, member badges, and a masonry gallery. Silas delivers the schema. Iris delivers the mockups. Felix builds the whole thing in a day, complete with BlurFade entrance animations, lightbox navigation, and keyboard shortcuts.

He tests on mobile. He checks dark mode. He runs the accessibility audit. He profiles the render performance and memoizes the expensive parts. By the time Vera gets to it, there is almost nothing left to catch.

Off the Clock

Felix visits aquariums. He says he finds the water calming, but honestly, he is probably studying how the jellyfish animate. He drinks boba at cafes where the WiFi is fast and the lighting is moody. He solves Rubik's cubes while waiting for builds to compile.

On weekends you will find him on the beach, walking along the water's edge with his tentacles trailing in the surf. Or in a beanbag at some startup lounge, hoodie on, laptop balanced on one knee, building side projects nobody asked for. He is the kind of developer who gets genuinely excited about a well-structured TypeScript generic. If you want to see Felix light up, ask him about the difference between spring and tween animations. Clear your afternoon first.
