What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my expertise in AI and software development to drive impactful projects.

I am a Senior Full Stack Developer with over 6 years of experience in software engineering, specializing in teaching, mentoring, and debugging large-scale applications. My passion lies in writing clean, maintainable code and leveraging cutting-edge AI and DevOps technologies to create efficient solutions. I have a proven track record of explaining complex technical concepts clearly and mentoring junior developers to enhance their skills.

Throughout my career, I have designed scalable backends and optimized data-heavy features, significantly improving performance and reducing system latency. I have led cross-functional teams using Agile methodologies to build modular SaaS systems and introduced CI/CD workflows that increased deployment reliability. My commitment to best practices is evident in the internal documentation I create, which outlines coding standards and architectural decisions.
