What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles building scalable web, mobile, or AI products in collaborative, remote-first teams where I can lead architecture, mentor engineers, and drive measurable business impact.

I am a Senior Full Stack Software Developer with 10+ years building scalable web and mobile applications for international clients. I specialize in Java, JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, React, Vue, Next.js, Node.js, C#/.NET, and cloud platforms including AWS and GCP.

I have led architecture and development for AI-powered platforms processing millions of queries monthly and generating multi-million dollar recurring revenue. I architect microservices, integrate AI (OpenAI GPT-4), and optimize systems for performance, reliability, and low latency.

My background includes building B2B e-commerce platforms handling high GMV and concurrent users, offline-first mobile apps with high daily active usage, and robust backend systems using Django, FastAPI, and NestJS. I emphasize observability, caching strategies, and event-driven designs to ensure uptime and data consistency.

I enjoy mentoring engineers, driving technical leadership in remote teams, and delivering products that combine strong engineering practices with measurable business impact.
