I am a full‑stack developer with 3+ years of professional experience building and maintaining production systems in the banking and financial sector. My expertise covers backend development with Java and Spring Boot, frontend development with React, and cloud‑native architectures on AWS, Docker, and Kubernetes.​
On the backend, I design and implement RESTful and microservice architectures using Java, Spring Boot, Hibernate/JPA, and SQL/NoSQL databases such as Oracle, PostgreSQL, and DynamoDB. I have hands‑on experience deploying microservices on OpenShift and containerized environments, and setting up CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins for automated testing and delivery.​
On the frontend, I build responsive single‑page applications using React and modern JavaScript, integrating them with secure APIs and implementing clear, maintainable UI logic. This allows you to work with a single developer who can own the full web stack, from database schema and business logic to user interface and production deployment.​
I also design and deliver fully serverless applications using AWS Lambda, API Gateway, and DynamoDB, as in my public URL‑shortening service (urlcutlabs). This experience means I can build cost‑efficient, auto‑scaling solutions where you only pay for actual usage, without worrying about server management.​
