Your code looks nice, here's the TS version:

function addTimes(startTime: string, endTime: string): string {
  const times = [0, 0, 0]
  const max = times.length

  const a = (startTime || "").split(":")
  const b = (endTime || "").split(":")

  // normalize time values
  for (let i = 0; i < max; i++) {
    const si = i.toString()
    a[si] = Number.isNaN(Number.parseInt(a[i])) ? 0 : Number.parseInt(a[i])
    b[si] = Number.isNaN(Number.parseInt(b[i])) ? 0 : Number.parseInt(b[i])
  }

  // store time values
  for (let i = 0; i < max; i++) {
    const si = i.toString()
    times[si] = a[i] + b[i]
  }

  let hours = times[0]
  let minutes = times[1]
  let seconds = times[2]

  if (seconds >= 60) {
    const m = (seconds / 60) << 0
    minutes += m
    seconds -= 60 * m
  }

  if (minutes >= 60) {
    const h = (minutes / 60) << 0
    hours += h
    minutes -= 60 * h
  }

  return `${Number(`0${hours}`)}:${(`0${minutes}`).slice(-2)}:${(`0${seconds}`).slice(-2)}`
}
