What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a collaborative engineering team where I can build and ship scalable full-stack web/mobile products—especially in fintech or real-time experiences—owning API, authentication, payments, and performance from idea to production.

I’m a full-stack software engineer with 5+ years of experience shipping production-ready web and mobile applications across fintech, e-commerce, and real-time monitoring platforms. I focus on building scalable frontend interfaces with React/React Native and designing backend systems with Node.js, Express, and real-time services—taking products from concept to production deploy.

From founding and shaping a fintech platform to leading a small mobile team, I’ve built core UI systems, transaction flows, wallet logic, and secure onboarding with KYC verification. I also strengthen reliability through API design, payment integrations, authentication systems, performance optimization, refactoring, and testability—so teams can move fast without breaking trust.
