What I'm looking for

I seek backend or platform roles where I can build scalable, low-latency systems, lead technical delivery, and drive automated cloud-native deployments.

I am a backend-focused software engineer with experience building scalable, real-time distributed systems using Golang, Node.js and cloud-native technologies. I have led small engineering teams, designed microservice and event-driven architectures, and delivered production services with strong emphasis on performance, security (JWT, RBAC) and automated CI/CD.

My projects include a startup backend for real-time media and streaming with PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, WebSockets and FFMPEG, and enterprise integrations improving processing efficiency; I have a track record of optimizing latency, implementing autoscaling on AWS, and winning a high-profile security bounty.
