What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build reliable backend APIs with NestJS/Node.js, grow in full-stack development, and contribute to real products—ideally alongside teams that value clean architecture, testing, and fast iteration.

I’m a motivated Software Engineering student with strong foundations in programming, data structures, full-stack web development, APIs, AI/ML, and blockchain. I enjoy turning prototypes into real features, especially where clean backend architecture and clear business rules matter.

In backend roles, I’ve led and built Node.js/NestJS APIs, including a hospitality platform guest experience and resort operations backend, and a production-style organizational management API with JWT authentication, hierarchy management, testing, and structured backend development. I also develop with blockchain—building FairChain using Stellar/Soroban smart contracts—and I bring the same fast-learning mindset and problem-solving energy to every project.
