What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build scalable, high-performance full-stack products where I can lead architecture, deliver reliable APIs and user experiences, collaborate closely with product and design teams, and solve meaningful business problems.

I've built scalable digital platforms for Dev House Austria, Dev Centre House Ireland, and Nathan Digital, delivering end-to-end features, REST APIs, responsive interfaces, and production-ready backend services.

At Nathan Digital, I led AI-powered platforms for fintech, retail, and hospitality clients, architecting modular microservices, integrating payroll, biometrics, CRM, and cloud-storage tools, and delivering real-time analytics and automation pipelines. I also implemented CI/CD with Docker, Amazon ECS, and Bitbucket Pipelines while improving database performance and caching.

Across government, healthcare, ERP, CRM, and SaaS projects, I've improved system performance, security, adoption, and operational efficiency through thoughtful architecture, testing, documentation, and stakeholder collaboration.
