What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative, Agile team where I can lead backend/full‑stack engineering, drive scalable architectures, mentor engineers, and deliver high‑impact cloud-native products.

I am a Principal Software Engineer with over 15 years in the software industry, experienced in building websites and applications using JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Node.js, PHP, SQL and modern frameworks such as Next.js and NestJS. I take pride in driving technical excellence, improving effectiveness and efficiency across teams, and delivering scalable microservices and cloud-based solutions using AWS, Redis, RabbitMQ and containerization.

I have led small teams, managed large-scale projects using Nx monorepo patterns, and delivered production systems including NFT marketplaces, charity crowdsourcing platforms, healthcare portals and enterprise CMS/ecommerce solutions. I value collaboration, continuous learning, personal accountability and producing high-quality, performant systems.
