What I'm looking for

I am seeking a dynamic role that fosters innovation, collaboration, and growth opportunities.

As a Senior Full-Stack Developer with over 9 years of experience, I have a proven track record of delivering high-quality web applications and interfaces. My expertise spans both front-end and back-end technologies, including frameworks like React, Angular, and Node.js, as well as Python and Ruby frameworks. I excel in integrating APIs, conducting thorough testing, and implementing best practices for code quality. My collaborative approach allows me to work effectively with cross-functional teams to gather requirements and deliver projects on time and within budget.

In my recent role as a Full Stack Developer, I successfully migrated a legacy WordPress-based tool to a modern SaaS architecture, enhancing user experience and performance. I also designed an AI-powered healthcare provider matching service, utilizing advanced technologies such as Large Language Models and microservices architecture. My commitment to continuous improvement is evident in my leadership of technical workshops and my focus on optimizing development practices.
