What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can build scalable, AI-enabled systems, lead architecture, improve observability and CI/CD, and mentor teams in a collaborative, growth-focused environment.

I am a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with over 12 years of experience building scalable, high-performance web applications and distributed systems. I have deep expertise in React, Next.js, Node.js, Python, Go, and cloud platforms (Google Cloud Platform and AWS), and I consistently integrate AI and machine learning to improve user engagement and recommendation capabilities.

I lead architecture and implementation of microservices, CI/CD pipelines, containerized deployments, and real-time data processing using Kafka, Docker, and Kubernetes. I prioritize observability, security, and performance, and I collaborate cross-functionally to deliver reliable, production-grade solutions while mentoring peers and improving team practices.
