What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build reliable, scalable SaaS products—owning both frontend and backend. I want a team that values clean architecture, performance optimization, secure APIs, and strong testing/CI/CD to ship production-ready systems.

I’m a Full Stack Engineer with 6+ years of experience building scalable SaaS platforms using React, Next.js, Node.js, and AWS serverless infrastructure. I design performant frontend applications, secure backend APIs, and distributed cloud systems—always grounded in clean architecture and reliability.

In my recent roles, I’ve built healthcare analytics processing 500K+ clinical records, reduced data synchronization time by 35% with event-driven pipelines, and delivered production outcomes through strong testing and CI/CD practices. I’m especially energized by performance optimization, serverless/microservices design, and shipping dependable products with modern tooling like Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress, Docker, and Terraform.
