My values

The principles that guide how I work — from first commit to final launch.

Rapid Development

Tight deadlines are the norm in enterprise work. I write fast, but I don't cut corners — the output is clean, tested, and ready to ship.

Enterprise Experience

I've built for the big names — Fortune 500 brands, global banks, pharma companies — using Sitecore, Optimizely, and custom React apps.

Team Collaboration

I speak designer and I speak developer. I ask good questions, document my work, and don't leave teammates guessing.

Tech Stack Versatility

I've shipped in React, Angular, Vue, Svelte, and whatever else the project called for. New tools don't slow me down.

Business Impact

Better Lighthouse scores, smoother UX, faster launches — I keep the bigger picture in mind when writing code.

Reliability

I show up, I follow through, and I take pride in the work. If I say it'll be done, it'll be done.

My experience

The roles and clients that shaped how I work.

Senior Front-End Developer

  • Built and maintained responsive web applications for Fortune 500 clients using React, Angular, and modern CSS
  • Component work in Storybook, GSAP, and Tailwind CSS — held the bar on performance and design consistency
  • Managed content and feature delivery in enterprise CMS platforms: Optimizely, Sitecore (SXA + Content Editor), Drupal, and WordPress
  • Worked closely with designers and back-end teams to match designs to spec — accessible, cross-browser, on deadline
  • Worked across Angular, Vue.js, and React on diverse client engagements — cross-browser compatibility and WCAG accessibility compliance throughout

Office Administrator / Clerical Specialist

  • Assisted with office operations and administrative systems; coordinated cross-departmental workflows
  • Data entry, document management, and strong written and verbal communication with clients, vendors, and stakeholders
  • Provided medical and legal transcription services

My skills

Here's what I work with and what I bring to a team.

About me

Hi, I'm Tom DeLuca — a senior front-end developer based in Warwick, New York with 15+ years building production web experiences.

I take designs and build them out exactly as intended — clean code, accessible markup, and solid performance — whether it's a CMS-powered marketing site or a React/Next.js app. My stack spans HTML CSS JavaScript React Angular Sitecore Optimizely and beyond.

I work closely with designers, back-end engineers, and project managers — keeping things moving, asking the right questions, and shipping work that doesn't need to be revisited.

Outside of code, I'm into anime, gaming, and spending time with family and friends.

Also available for: Transcription services and administrative support.

What colleagues say

Feedback from designers, developers, and managers I've worked with.

Tom is a great front-end developer with a focus on details including accessibility, which I have found refreshing. His feedback and contributions were very useful; often I would defer entirely to his guidance for UX and front-end work. He would be a valuable resource to any team, especially those with the need to focus on accessibility compliance.

John R. Software Architect, Rapid7

Tom is an extremely hard-working and proficient web developer who is beloved by all. It was a pleasure working with him.

Justin F. Head of Practices, GeekHive

Tom brought a special something to the team. When he wasn't blowing everyone's mind with the speed at which he could execute on a given problem, he was always willing to help someone with ideas. He was definitely a significant asset and the reason for success on many projects.

Phil A. Technical Lead, GeekHive

Tom is a pleasure to work with. He naturally attracts people because in addition to being a great developer, he's a genuinely nice guy. As a teammate, I always found him to be dependable, and his work is always top notch. I'm happy to recommend him.
