What I'm looking for

I seek roles building scalable web applications where I can lead technical direction, apply cloud-native DevOps practices, mentor teams, and work in Agile environments for measurable product impact.

I am a Systems Engineer with over 10 years of experience as a FullStack web developer, focused on building scalable backend services with Node.js (Express, NestJS, Serverless) and TypeScript, and delivering modern frontends using React, Vue.js and Angular. I have extensive PHP background (plain PHP, Laravel, Symfony) and experience with CMS platforms like Drupal, WordPress and Prestashop, plus strong database skills in MySQL, PostgreSQL and MongoDB.

Over the last several years I have integrated DevOps and cloud practices using AWS and Azure services, Docker, Git-based CI/CD and Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban). I have led and contributed to projects for international clients, delivering CRM/CMS solutions, migration efforts and production-ready applications while mentoring teams and teaching technical courses.
