I've built Node.js services at Ordibl for voice and chat scheduling across 20K monthly interactions and 30+ languages. I designed multilingual conversational APIs, asynchronous job queues, PostgreSQL schemas, and JWT/RBAC controls while improving incident response with OpenTelemetry and Grafana.

Previously, I improved customer-portal API response times by 30% at CBL Data Recovery and reduced 3D workflow execution time by 40% at Proxima Interactive. I build reliable backend products with Node.js, Java, cloud infrastructure, databases, security, and AI-assisted workflows.
