What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and modernize production software across the stack, from reliable enterprise systems to new platform architectures.

I'm a backend-leaning full-stack engineer with 6+ years of experience, most of it in high-ownership, early-stage settings. I started at vEngage.ai, an early-stage healthcare startup, as one of its first engineers — building backend integration services and a conversational layer over its Voice IVR system from scratch.

Since then I've gravitated toward situations where I own the whole system: I solo-rearchitected a legacy monolith into microservices at Jsquare, built a C#/.NET API layer over a lab-management platform at Softuvo, and I'm currently the sole engineer on a business-operations platform for a hospitality client — CRM, events, billing, payroll, notifications — built on FastAPI, PostgreSQL, and Svelte, self-hosted on Docker/Hetzner.

Outside client work, I run a self-hosted AI stack on my own hardware (Ollama, LiteLLM, RAG, QLoRA fine-tuning) — I like staying hands-on with the AI-native side of building, not just reading about it.
