What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers opportunities for growth, collaboration, and innovation in software development.

As a Full Stack Developer with 7 years of experience, I specialize in Java and React, with a strong focus on backend development and embedded systems. My expertise in low-level programming allows me to understand software at a deep level, enabling me to write clean, maintainable code and optimize databases effectively.

At Paysend, I have led a team of developers to build a web-based banking product that attracted over 100,000 users within three months. My contributions include integrating cost-effective identity verification solutions and containerizing projects using Docker to enhance development efficiency. I am passionate about mentoring new developers and conducting knowledge transfer sessions to foster a collaborative team environment.
