What I'm looking for

I am looking for remote contract roles that offer technical challenges and opportunities for leadership.

I am a seasoned software engineer with over two decades of experience in designing, building, and leading the development of complex, distributed systems across diverse industries. My expertise lies in full-stack development, with a strong focus on writing clean, scalable, and maintainable code in Python and TypeScript. I have a proven track record of leading large-scale migrations and architecting robust solutions that deliver high-quality user experiences.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed teams and projects, consistently meeting key performance indicators and deadlines. My passion for creating intuitive and user-centric applications drives my work, and I thrive in collaborative environments where I can mentor and guide engineering teams. I am currently seeking challenging remote contract roles in the US, where I can leverage my extensive technical leadership and development expertise to deliver impactful solutions.
