What I'm looking for

I seek roles building scalable APIs and end-to-end systems in collaborative, Agile teams where I can lead technical delivery, mentor engineers, and optimize performance.

I am a Full-Stack Developer focused on building secure, robust, and scalable RESTful APIs using technologies such as Spring Boot, Django, React, Java, and Python. I have a proven track record improving performance—examples include reducing data retrieval times by up to 40% and cutting development cycle times by 20%—and I mentor teams to raise productivity.

I bring hands-on experience with PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MySQL, AWS, Docker, CI/CD, and Agile practices, plus delivery of multiple projects including a learning management system and hotel booking system. I prioritize clean architecture, performance optimization, and inclusive leadership to drive reliable, high-performance solutions.
