Software Engineer who ships reliable backend and cloud systems, automating migrations across GCP and Azure.
PolandWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Software Engineer with 3+ years building backend systems, cloud infrastructure, and full-stack applications. I enjoy shipping production features end-to-end, from design and validation to deployment and monitoring.
At my current role, I lead multiple engineering workstreams, introduced agile sprint cycles and CI/CD automation, and helped teams move faster with better structured documentation. I built and shipped a Flutter-based public transport navigation app for Kigali with 50,000+ projected downloads, and I develop and maintain the corporate website using React and TypeScript.
Previously, I worked as an Azure Cloud Engineer where I automated Azure migration validation, cutting migration time by 20%. I also delivered Azure Backup and Site Recovery automation that reduced data loss incidents by 20%, and I fixed a silent ASR misconfiguration through automated validation that runs every cycle.
I’ve also built a production AI voicebot whistleblower reporting system end-to-end, including Dialogflow ES conversation design and a Node.js + TypeScript backend with strong input validation and Firebase integration. I bring an engineering mindset focused on reliability, observability, and continuous improvement across CI/CD pipelines.
