What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead and build scalable, high-performance web products, improve frontend architecture and user experience, and collaborate with teams that value strong engineering practices and mentorship.

I’m a software engineer with about five years of experience building web products, mainly with React and Next.js, and more recently with Java/Spring Boot, Node.js, Express, and PostgreSQL.

A lot of my work has involved taking real products from idea to production, improving performance, building reusable systems, integrating APIs, and working across both frontend and backend. I’ve also mentored developers and helped improve team development workflows.

What interests me most now is becoming a stronger full-stack engineer, especially around backend systems, system design, APIs, databases, and building products that solve real business problems.
