Software engineer building scalable, secure web and mobile products.
What I'm looking for
I am a software engineer focused on building scalable, secure web and mobile products, with deep experience in modern frontend frameworks, backend services, and cloud infrastructure.
At K Health I developed Node.js services integrated with the FHIR API, led a Retool integration proof-of-concept, migrated a legacy Salesforce app to Next.js + Contentful, and established Playwright/Jest pipelines alongside Datadog monitoring and LaunchDarkly feature flags.
At Mapcreator I built advanced Mapbox GL / MapLibre editors with dynamic layers, clustering and offline tiles, upgraded Vue 2 codebases to Vue 3 using the Composition API, migrated state from Vuex to Pinia, and created shared component libraries and media tooling (FFmpeg, WebCodecs).
I delivered a cross-platform booking app at Megacarwash, designed end-to-end UX/UI and architecture, and set up AWS + Docker Compose + Nginx CI/CD. I also teach programming, co-founded an IT school, and create technical content on YouTube.
