CanadaWhat I'm looking for
I am a full-stack software engineer blending design and engineering to deliver scalable, user-friendly applications and impactful product features.
I have led front-end initiatives and small engineering teams to build Next.js applications with complex client state, secure AWS Cognito authentication, and Python/FastAPI backends while maintaining consistent typing across codebases.
My work has improved performance and SEO (Lighthouse scores from 72 to 96+), reduced LCP and CLS, and increased organic traffic by 20%; I have also delivered modular marketplaces, calculators, and large dynamic catalogues updated daily.
I value strong collaboration with design teams, maintainable design systems, and measurable productivity gains, and I seek to continue shipping high-quality, user-centric products in fast-paced environments.
