What I'm looking for

I seek roles combining secure web development and cloud-native practices in collaborative, agile teams where I can advance application security, CI/CD automation, and scalable system design.

I am an MSc in Applied Computer Science with a strong foundation in cybersecurity and full-stack web development. I build secure, performant web applications using React, Node.js, TypeScript and PostgreSQL while applying modern devops practices.

My experience includes designing and deploying microservice-based systems on AWS with Docker, Terraform, and CI/CD, and optimizing databases and search solutions such as Meilisearch. I authored a master’s thesis on web application security vulnerabilities and mitigation strategies.

As a cybersecurity intern I developed a threat analysis platform, designed a CSIRT model for telecom, and led incident simulation and remediation efforts. I also produce training materials and threat intelligence briefings to elevate organizational security posture.

I collaborate effectively in Scrum teams, apply software modeling and architectural design principles, and focus on building scalable, maintainable solutions that prioritize security and user experience.
