About me
Intro
I’m a software engineer with 15+ years of experience building and scaling web platforms, data systems, and backend services. I’ve worked on high-traffic distributed systems, building microservices, data pipelines, reporting platforms, and enterprise workflow orchestration systems. I’ve also contributed to backend modernization, including migrating monolithic systems to modular architectures. My core stack is Python and Node.js, with experience in Kafka, cloud platforms, and frontend frameworks like React and Angular. I work across the stack and have experience with DevOps practises I’m based in Luxembourg and open to opportunities in Germany, the Netherlands, Ireland, and the UK, as well as other roles across Europe.
