What I'm looking for
I'm a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with 9+ years of experience delivering high-performance web, mobile, and backend systems across AI, SaaS, fintech, and hospitality sectors. I've spent my career at Codalien Technologies leading long-term client engagements where I operate as both a hands-on engineer and technical leader.
Most recently I've been the Founding Frontend Engineer at Humanform, an AI/digital identity platform, where I architected the entire web and React Native ecosystem from scratch — including real-time voice and face capture interfaces using WebAssembly for on-device processing at sub-50ms latency. Before that I was promoted to Development Technical Lead at Plural, a P2P job marketplace, where I led a team of 3+ engineers across a full-stack Node.js, GraphQL, MongoDB, and React Native architecture.
On the AI side, I've built production systems independently: Ask Chitrank is a RAG API running on Groq (Llama 4) with pgvector semantic search, a 2-stage caching layer, and retrieval confidence gating that eliminates hallucinations in production. I'm also building Meterplex, an open-source multi-tenant usage metering engine on NestJS, Kafka, Redis, and PostgreSQL.
I thrive in small, high-ownership teams where I can work end-to-end — from architecture decisions to shipping production code. I'm immediately available for remote roles globally.
