Swathi Sreeramareddy — Senior Frontend Engineer

01 About

I build responsive, maintainable web applications with Angular, TypeScript, NgRx, and RxJS. Most recently at Cisco CX Cloud, I developed frontend features in an Nx monorepo, managed application state with NgRx and Component Store, and integrated user interfaces with backend APIs — partnering with product managers, UX designers, and backend engineers to turn requirements into reliable customer experiences.

My path gives me an unusual view of quality. I spent more than eight years in test automation at Jasper, a high-growth IoT startup, and at Cisco after it acquired Jasper — automating SOAP and REST API testing and certifying integrations with partners including General Motors and Gemalto. Today that experience shows up in my frontend work: at CX Cloud I helped raise unit test coverage above 80% with Jest and built Cypress end-to-end tests for critical customer flows. For me, quality is part of how I design components, state, and API integrations — not a step at the end.

I recently took time away to found an early-stage direct-to-consumer venture, owning product development, supplier relationships, branding, and go-to-market. That experience sharpened my ownership and bias toward shipping. Now I'm returning to software engineering full-time, looking to own meaningful features on a small, fast-moving team.
