What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on engineering role building scalable systems and generative-AI products in an Agile team, with opportunities for technical leadership and impact.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with 6+ years of experience building full-stack applications using JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Node.js and Python. I focus on clean architecture, scalable microservices, and robust testing practices including TDD, and have delivered production systems across startups and enterprise clients.

I have led generative AI projects integrating OpenAI/ChatGPT and other LLMs, implemented chat modules, semantic search, embeddings and RAG architectures, and built internal tools for document summarization and LLM-driven Q&A. I have experience in DevOps (Docker, AWS), performance tuning, and system design across frontend and backend stacks.

I thrive in Agile teams, take ownership of complex features, mentor small teams, and enjoy solving hard engineering problems while maintaining strong delivery discipline and a focus on user-facing value.
