Intro

I’m a Senior Full Stack Engineer with over 12 years of experience designing, building, and scaling cloud-native, high-performance applications for industries including fintech, healthcare, SaaS, and logistics. My expertise spans frontend frameworks such as React, Vue, and Angular, and backend technologies including Node.js, Python (Django, FastAPI, Flask), Java (Spring Boot). I’m passionate about creating clean, efficient, and scalable software architectures that deliver measurable business results. Over the years, I’ve developed deep experience in microservices design, REST/GraphQL API development, and event-driven systems, while ensuring performance, reliability, and security at scale. My work typically involves AWS, Azure, and GCP, where I design infrastructure-as-code using Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, and CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions or Jenkins. I focus on automation-first development and use monitoring, observability, and DevOps best practices to maintain uptime and system transparency. On the frontend, I build responsive, component-driven interfaces using React 18, Vue 3, and Angular 15, integrating TypeScript, Redux Toolkit, and Tailwind CSS to deliver seamless user experiences. On the backend, I architect distributed systems, optimize PostgreSQL and MongoDB performance, and implement caching strategies with Redis, RabbitMQ, or Kafka. I also have experience working with AI-enhanced workflows, where I integrate APIs and automation pipelines to improve decision-making and data processing in real-time systems. I’m a strong believer in code quality, TDD/BDD practices, and continuous improvement through modern engineering processes. Colleagues know me as someone who bridges the gap between development and operations—mentoring teams, refining architecture, and ensuring that every project combines scalability, maintainability, and performance. I’m now looking for fully remote opportunities where I can lead technical initiatives, guide architecture decisions, and help teams deliver modern, reliable products. I’m especially drawn to roles involving microservices, distributed data platforms, cloud solutions, and enterprise-scale web systems.
