About

From Civil Engineering to Front-End Development

I'm Swapnil Katiyar, a Front-End Developer based in Noida, India. With ~3+ years of experience building responsive, high-performance web applications, I specialize in React, TypeScript, and modern JavaScript.

My journey started in civil engineering, where I worked as a Structural Design Engineer, analyzing and designing structures while mentoring 200+ students. This analytical background helps me approach frontend development with a focus on performance, scalability, and maintainability.

Today, I build product-focused UIs that prioritize user experience, SEO, and performance. I'm passionate about code quality, team collaboration, and continuous learning.

Career Switch

Transitioning from civil engineering to frontend development wasn't just a career change—it was leveraging analytical thinking and problem-solving skills in a new domain. The attention to detail required in structural analysis translates directly to writing clean, performant code.
