Versatile software engineer with over 10 years of experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a versatile and collaborative software engineer with over 10 years of hands-on experience in building, designing, and mentoring others through enterprise-grade software, SaaS platforms, hardware integrations, and full-stack web applications. My work spans enterprise APIs, dynamic web applications, real-time data pipelines, cloud infrastructure, and hardware integrations. My background in Mechanical Engineering, specifically in Optimal Design & Robotics, provides me with a strong foundation in structured problem-solving and a practical understanding of how software, infrastructure, networking, and latency interact to shape system behavior.
Throughout my career, I have grown as both a mentor and an architect. Teaching others has deepened my own understanding, and I take pride in helping engineers navigate complex problems, design better systems, and build with long-term purpose. I specialize in .NET, Node.js, Python, Vue, React/Next, and MongoDB, with a strong emphasis on microservices architecture, DevOps practices, and secure, cloud-native deployments. I thrive in fast-moving environments where I can apply my versatility, solve real problems, and help others grow through mentorship.
