What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges me technically and offers opportunities for leadership and innovation in software development.

I am a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with over 10 years of experience in developing and maintaining robust, scalable applications.

I have successfully led over 30 projects across various industries, including fintech, healthcare, and SaaS, ensuring secure and efficient application delivery.

Throughout my career, I have architected and deployed mission-critical platforms, notably at Oracle, where I engineered a high-throughput authorization system that processed over 10 million requests daily. My technical leadership has been pivotal in transitioning monolithic architectures to modular microservices, enhancing deployment speed and fault isolation. I am passionate about mentoring junior engineers and fostering best practices within cross-functional teams.
