What I'm looking for

I’m looking to own architecture and delivery of full-stack, distributed systems and AI-powered products—building reliable APIs, data pipelines, and polished UI with React and Node.js—while maintaining strong engineering quality and shipping end-to-end.

I’m a Senior Fullstack Engineer with 10+ years of experience building and shipping end-to-end products—from interactive frontends to distributed backend systems and AI-powered platforms. I’m equally comfortable architecting APIs, designing data pipelines, and delivering polished user-facing features.

Most recently, I led a “Checkout Infrastructure Rebuild” by identifying WooCommerce as a scaling bottleneck and architecting a replacement e-commerce service from scratch in TypeScript and Node.js. I integrated Paytiko and Paysafe as payment providers, replacing fragile plugin-based handling with a clean, maintainable API layer.

As Lead Product Engineer & Founder of Searchly AI, I built and launched an AI-powered semantic search engine for e-commerce. I designed the full data ingestion pipeline with Laravel, RabbitMQ, and Python using vector embeddings and OpenSearch for natural language product discovery, and I owned the product lifecycle from architecture to frontend onboarding and documentation.

Earlier, at 64Robots I integrated OpenAI into a broker workflow to auto-generate draft property listings from Offering Memorandum PDFs, improved search with Elasticsearch, and built secure payment APIs and webhook infrastructure. I also deliver strong engineering quality—introducing linting and automated testing—and I’ve shipped complete full-stack features using React and Vue across multiple product lines.
