What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build full-stack web products, collaborate with engineers and AI/ML teams, and ship reliable features—especially authentication, APIs, and clean, responsive frontends.

I’m a full-stack developer who collaborated on building the core web infrastructure for an AI-powered academic platform. I designed and built UI experiences, implemented secure user authentication with Node.js and Express.js, and used PostgreSQL to manage user data and application state.

Alongside AI/ML engineers, I integrated frontend interfaces with backend AI models and built production-style projects like a movie discovery tool using TMDB API and an Appwrite-backed metrics system. I also enjoy building type-safe, RESTful applications—whether that’s a TypeScript e-commerce experience or a habit-tracker API with modular architecture and automated testing.
