Full stack engineer with 7 years shipping reliable production web apps.
What I'm looking for
I’m a full stack engineer with seven years of experience building and shipping web applications in production environments. I’ve worked across Fintech, eCommerce, SaaS, and LLMs with AI, and I own the full stack when the project needs it.
I focus on the delivery side—taking features from design through deployment, keeping them reliable, and ensuring I don’t leave a mess for the next person. I’ve led architecture decisions, set up CI/CD pipelines from scratch, and handled end-to-end work from database schema to APIs and responsive UIs.
Recently, I’ve been building Applyd, an AI-powered job application platform I designed and shipped solo. I automated job discovery, resume parsing, autofill, and tailored application responses, and I integrated LLM-based services to improve relevance and consistency at scale.
Before that, at Blue Window Ltd, I architected Node.js/Express.js data services to support high concurrency and improved uptime, throughput, and API latency. I also built secure, role-based authentication, improved UI/UX outcomes with React and Angular, and resolved production incidents to keep downtime under 1% annually.
