What I'm looking for

I’m looking for opportunities where I can own end-to-end feature delivery, combining backend reliability with frontend clarity, while building real-time experiences (notifications, scheduling, communication) in teams that value cross-functional collaboration and quality.

I’m a Full Stack Web Developer and Software Engineer with more than 4 years of expertise building web-based applications end to end, with a strong grasp of both backend and frontend components. I’ve designed and implemented services for video call communication, event scheduling, and notifications, and I’m comfortable turning client requirements into working features.

In my current role, I plan and develop backend and frontend software for an e-health platform, implementing an Email, Websocket and Firebase Notification’s service and providing production support and maintenance. Previously, I coordinated research and development activities, including machine learning for context awareness using RF sensing of mobile human motion, and contributed to spectrum sharing and RF signal detection techniques. I value cross-functional collaboration, timely delivery, and high-quality outcomes.
