About me
Intro
Full-Stack Engineer with 6+ years of experience building scalable SaaS platforms and AI-driven systems. I specialize in JavaScript and TypeScript ecosystems, with strong expertise in React, Next.js, Node.js, and Python. I design and ship production-ready systems combining modern web technologies, asynchronous architectures, and AI workflows. Recently, I’ve been focusing on AI-first development, building systems powered by LLMs (OpenAI, Gemini, Claude) combined with web-enabled tools and external data sources. I design and implement AI pipelines combining: - LLMs - Asynchronous workflows (queues, workers) - Real-time data processing to automate workflows, generate content, and extract insights at scale. Key achievements: - Built and launched multiple SaaS platforms from scratch in weeks - Systems used by 4,000+ users generating up to 5,000 events/day - Designed and deployed AI pipelines for automation, analytics, and content generation - Reduced processing time from weeks to minutes through automation Tech stack: React • Next.js • Node.js • TypeScript • Python • PostgreSQL • Prisma • Redis • BullMQ • FastAPI • LLMs I’m particularly interested in building scalable products, AI-powered applications, and high-impact systems. 👉 Open to remote opportunities and collaborations.
