What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead cloud-native, distributed systems and full-stack product delivery—building scalable APIs, responsive UIs, and CI/CD pipelines with strong observability, mentoring teams, and partnering with stakeholders.

I’m a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with 12 years of experience designing and scaling distributed systems and modern web applications. My strength is building cloud-native products end-to-end—scalable RESTful APIs, microservices architectures, and responsive user interfaces—using PHP/Laravel and modern JavaScript frameworks like React and TypeScript.

I’ve delivered measurable improvements by leading distributed teams, architecting SaaS platforms, and raising engineering quality through standards, 100+ code reviews, and mentoring. I also bring hands-on cloud and platform expertise, including AWS/GCP infrastructure design, CI/CD pipelines, containerized deployments with Docker/Kubernetes, and observability practices that improve reliability and uptime.
