What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic work environment that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can continue to grow my skills and contribute to impactful projects.

I am a results-driven Software Developer with proven expertise in full-stack development and performance optimization that directly impacts business outcomes. At PiLog Group, I successfully reduced system downtime by implementing proactive monitoring solutions and decreased bug resolution time by 30% through systematic debugging approaches. My strong technical abilities span multiple technology stacks including Java/Spring Boot, Angular, C#/ASP.NET, and SQL Server, complemented by exceptional client communication skills that allow me to translate complex requirements into elegant solutions.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated versatility through both professional work and personal side projects, consistently delivering high-quality code that balances innovation with reliability and scalability. My experience includes streamlining CI/CD processes, optimizing database performance, and enhancing API reliability through comprehensive testing strategies. I have received commendations for my exceptional client communication and problem-solving abilities, and I am passionate about mentoring others and sharing knowledge within the tech community.
