What I'm looking for

I seek a senior development role focused on scalable cloud systems, performance optimization, and mentoring—within growth-oriented teams that value testing and observability.

I am a senior software engineer with over 15 years' experience building, optimizing, and troubleshooting software and database solutions for international clients. I specialize in .NET, SQL Server, cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP), containers, and distributed system diagnostics, and I have a proven record of improving performance, reducing costs, and migrating legacy systems to modern stacks.

My background spans software architecture, operational leadership, and consultancy across government and private sectors, including blockchain exchange platforms and high-availability government gateways. I emphasize testing, monitoring, and clear technical documentation while mentoring teams and delivering production-ready PoCs and integrations such as OpenAI-driven capabilities.
