Senior frontend contractorAvailable now
Senior frontend capacity without the three-month hire.
When your team is stretched and hiring is slow, I join as a senior contractor: read the codebase, pick up tickets in the first week, review code and ship features. No ramp-up theatre. I have done this inside a large accounting SaaS for six years and inside a pharma company for three.

Is this a fit?
An honest fit check before we talk
I would rather tell you no on the first call than waste your budget. Here is what a good match looks like for this kind of work.
A good fit if
- Your engineering team is stretched and you need a senior frontend developer who can start soon.
- You want someone who ships and reviews code, not someone who needs to be managed.
- You are a recruiter or agency placing a senior React, Next.js or Vue contractor with a verifiable profile.
- You need a contractor who will still be here in a year, not just for a three-month gig.
Probably not a fit if
- You need on-site presence most days. I work remotely from Denmark.
- Your stack is Angular-only or something outside React and Vue. I have shipped Angular but it is not my main tool.
- You need a team lead to manage other contractors rather than an individual contributor.
What I do
What the engagement typically covers
- Feature delivery
- Pick up tickets from your backlog, ship them in small reviewable pull requests, and keep the board moving from week one.
- Code review and standards
- Review the team's pull requests, document conventions and raise the bar on types, tests and accessibility without slowing anyone down.
- Upgrades nobody has time for
- Framework upgrades, dependency cleanup, build tooling and performance work that keeps getting pushed to next sprint.
- Knowledge that stays
- Written decisions and documentation so the team keeps the knowledge if I leave, which my track record suggests will not be soon.

Process
How we'll work together
The same four steps for a two-day fix and a two-year engagement.
Intro call
A free 30-minute call where you tell me about your project, goals and constraints. I ask a lot of questions and tell you honestly whether I'm the right fit.
Proposal & estimate
You get a short written proposal: scope, approach, timeline and price. Fixed price for well-defined projects, hourly or retainer for ongoing work.
Build in the open
Short iterations, working software early, and a weekly update you can actually read. You see progress and can change course before it gets expensive.
Launch & support
I handle deployment, hand over clean documentation, and stick around for support and further development if you want me to.
FAQ
Questions I get asked
- How many hours a week are you available?
- My preferred engagement is 20-40 hours a week for six months or more. Shorter or smaller engagements are possible when my calendar allows. Current availability is on the homepage.
- Do you have a CV I can forward?
- Yes, a printable CV is at perhp.com/cv. It covers the stack, every engagement with years, and contact details. Recruiters and agencies are welcome to forward it, and perhp.com/for-recruiters has everything needed to qualify me for a role on one page.
- Which tools and workflows are you used to?
- GitHub and GitLab, pull request reviews, CI/CD, Jira and Linear, Slack and Teams, async written updates. I adapt to your team's process rather than the other way around.
- How do you invoice?
- From my Danish company, Pekkel (CVR DK-37106666), in EUR, DKK or USD. Monthly for ongoing work, milestone-based for fixed-price projects.
- Do you work with companies outside Denmark?
- Yes. Most of my work is remote. I am in the Central European timezone, which gives full overlap with Europe and the UK and 3-6 hours of overlap with the US East and Central timezones. I work async-first with a written weekly update.
- How quickly can you start?
- I keep my availability status up to date on the homepage. If it says available, I can usually start within one to two weeks. The first step is a free 30-minute intro call.
