I build high-traffic backend systems, payment workflows, and distributed cloud platforms.
What I'm looking for
I've delivered high-traffic OTA platforms for IBOOK and Flight Expert, building booking services, payment lifecycles, asynchronous workflows, and distributed infrastructure. At IBOOK, I designed a three-server Web, API, and Worker architecture that reduced production deployment time by 80%.
I've optimized systems handling demanding workloads, including 1M+ daily hotel rate updates and multi-vendor GDS synchronization reduced from 10 seconds to 200ms. I also improved database performance by up to 3Ă— and built reporting pipelines that reduced report generation time by 95%.
Across FinTech, SaaS, ERP, POS, logistics, e-commerce, and EdTech, I build Laravel, Node.js, Python, React, and Next.js applications. My work includes payment gateway integrations, financial ledgers, REST APIs, multi-tenant systems, secure file workflows, and cloud deployments.
I'm focused on scalable, secure, maintainable backend systems—from architecture and performance tuning through Docker deployment, CI/CD automation, and production support.
