What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can build production-ready full-stack systems—designing clean APIs, shipping reliable deployments on AWS/Docker, and improving performance and scalability end to end.

I’m a Full-Stack Software Engineer with a strong track record building scalable web applications, backend systems, and cloud-based infrastructure. I enjoy taking products from concept to deployment—optimizing performance, improving reliability, and supporting production-ready systems.

In my current role as Lead Software Engineer, I design and develop scalable backend APIs and cloud-based services, while also building responsive, high-performance frontends. I use React, Next.js, Vue, and Angular, and I support deployments with Docker, Docker Swarm, Linux, and AWS.

Previously, as a Senior Software Engineer, I built and maintained full-stack applications using Node.js, TypeScript, React, and modern JavaScript frameworks. I developed secure REST APIs with Express and NestJS, and improved system scalability, maintainability, and application performance through reliable production workflows.

Earlier, I worked as a Senior Software Engineer and Full Stack Engineer, delivering modern, user-friendly interfaces and database-driven features. Across Python, Java, C, Bash, and Linux-based environments, I strengthened my foundation in software architecture, networking, debugging/testing, and operational support—so teams can ship stable, efficient solutions.
