What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on full-stack software engineering role using .NET, React and Azure to build scalable applications, solve performance challenges, and collaborate in a growth-focused team.

I am a motivated software engineer with 7+ years of experience across the full software development lifecycle, delivering web, desktop and portal solutions. I focus on building reliable, reusable components and solving production issues quickly.

I have designed and implemented full-stack systems using .NET Core, ASP.NET MVC/WebForms, ReactJS, SQL/NoSQL and Azure services, and I regularly work on performance improvements and backend optimizations.

My notable achievements include designing reusable components that reduced development effort by 50%, performing root cause analysis to fix production issues within 24 hours, and contributing to multiple client-facing portals and internal systems.

I thrive in collaborative teams and also work independently; I enjoy translating business requirements into technical solutions and delivering measurable improvements in reporting accuracy, performance, and user experience.
