I’m looking for a role where I can work with a thoughtful team building something meaningful. I enjoy environments where architecture matters, quality is valued, and speed doesn’t come at the cost of long-term maintainability.

GreeceWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Software Architect and full-stack engineer with 10+ years of experience designing and building scalable products for startups and growth-stage teams. I specialize in turning early ideas into clean, production-ready MVPs through strong system architecture, pragmatic execution, and maintainable code.
I’m the founder of The Gyld, a development collective that helps teams move fast without sacrificing long-term technical health. My work spans backend engineering, API design, full-stack development, AI integrations, and technical strategy. I often collaborate closely with founders to define scope, design systems that scale, and deliver products that can evolve confidently over time.
I enjoy working in remote-first environments, taking ownership of complex systems, and contributing both as an architect and a hands-on engineer. Whether joining a team long-term or leading a focused build, my goal is always the same: build reliable software that supports real product growth.
