What I'm looking for

I seek engineering roles building scalable APIs and web apps with collaborative teams, opportunities to work with cloud services, and chances to grow into technical leadership.

I am a full‑stack software engineer with hands‑on experience delivering client projects across Europe, the Middle East, and the US. I build scalable APIs, design user‑friendly front ends, and optimize database workloads to improve performance.

At advisori/FTCGmbH I develop Angular front ends and Quarkus (Java) APIs, use Hibernate with MSSQL, and manage schema changes with Liquibase while collaborating with clients and cross‑functional teams.

Previously I worked on API and database improvements at Bayt.com, introducing Citus to reduce database load by 20%, and built Python microservices on AWS for Foretheta, integrating services like Cognito, S3, DynamoDB and Amplify.

I have completed 50+ freelance projects with high client satisfaction, hold a BSc in Computer Science and am pursuing an MS in Web and Data Science; I focus on delivering reliable, maintainable solutions and learning new technologies.
