## What I'm looking for

```

## About

```text
At Novibet, I was the main developer on the Casino Games backend service and contributed to the Escape Rooms service, which powers internal tools for casino agents. I migrated Casino Games from WCF to REST APIs and implemented event-driven communication with RabbitMQ and MassTransit.

I also built an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for live casino incidents, connecting runbooks and decision-tree datasets to Kibana and Grafana for guided investigations. Earlier, at Opencomm S.A., I built and maintained features using C#, ASP.NET, and Blazor; I also develop side projects including mobile apps and a real-time multiplayer game.
