What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to leverage my leadership skills and technical expertise in impactful projects, fostering innovation and collaboration.

With over five years of experience in leading product development teams, I have a proven track record of delivering innovative software solutions. Currently, as a Team Lead at iLearningEngines, I oversee three product development teams, ensuring timely completion of projects while fostering a culture of collaboration and excellence. My technical expertise in ReactJS, Node.js, and PostgreSQL allows me to architect applications that prioritize performance, security, and usability.

Throughout my career, I have successfully spearheaded the development of over 20 applications, mentored more than 25 developers, and implemented coding best practices that enhance code quality across projects. I am passionate about leveraging technology to drive business objectives and am committed to continuous learning and growth within my teams. I thrive in agile environments and am adept at translating complex requirements into actionable development plans, ensuring alignment with stakeholder expectations.
