Senior full stack engineer specializing in scalable backend and polished frontends.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a Senior Full Stack Engineer with 9+ years building and scaling production systems end-to-end. I bring deep backend expertise in Python, Node.js, PostgreSQL, and AWS, combined with frontend experience using React and Vue.js to deliver complete features from database schema to deployment.
Throughout my career I have architected microservices, designed RESTful APIs, and implemented containerized deployments and CI/CD pipelines for startups and enterprise clients. I have built high-traffic platforms supporting realtime features, secure payment integrations, and cross-regional events.
I value clear communication, ownership, and a bias toward action, and I seek roles where I can make architectural decisions, mentor teammates, and move products from MVP to production-ready systems.
