What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can build and refine full-stack products, own RESTful API integration, and keep quality high with automated tests. I value clear architecture decisions, performance tuning, and collaboration in international environments.

I’m a Full Stack Developer with professional experience since 2022, focused on end-to-end web application development. I work autonomously across the software lifecycle, combining strong engineering fundamentals with a product-minded approach.

I build and consume RESTful APIs, and I’m deliberate about code quality through writing and maintaining automated tests. I also refine system architecture—such as adopting a service-based architecture—to improve maintainability and test implementation.

In my recent work, I develop Vue.js interfaces with usability and componentization in mind, integrating efficiently with REST APIs. I’ve optimized database performance by eliminating N+1 query issues and improving application behavior while reducing infrastructure costs.

I’m comfortable working across modern stacks, including Laravel, Django, and Vue.js, with daily experience using PostgreSQL plus additional exposure to Oracle, MySQL, and MariaDB. I also bring practical DevOps fluency with Docker, Git, and Linux, and I enjoy collaborating in international teams using English.
