What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can lead impactful projects and contribute to strategic goals.

I am a seasoned Software Architect and Team Lead with over 11 years of hands-on experience in IT architecture, full-stack web development, and infrastructure management. Currently, I lead software initiatives at WebAppick, where I drive the design, development, testing, and optimization of high-impact web applications using modern technologies. My ability to align technology with business goals through innovation, automation, and strategic planning has been a key factor in my success.

Throughout my career, I have been recognized for exceeding performance targets and delivering complex projects in competitive environments. One of my proudest achievements was leading a project that improved customer retention by 25% and increased product performance by 30%. This required strategic planning and collaboration across departments, demonstrating my ability to lead and deliver under pressure while contributing significantly to the company's long-term goals.
