What I'm looking for

I seek senior full-stack roles building scalable, secure web platforms, with strong DevOps practices, mentorship opportunities, and impactful product work.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years building modern web platforms using JavaScript and TypeScript across frontend and backend stacks.

I specialize in designing REST and gRPC APIs, developing interactive UIs with React/Angular/Vue/Next.js, and integrating systems with PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MongoDB.

I have hands-on experience with containerization (Docker), CI/CD (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI), and deploying applications to AWS and Azure, and I contribute Python services for automation and ML integrations.

I focus on performance, reliability, and security—optimizing queries and caching strategies, implementing OAuth2/JWT, adding observability with Prometheus/Grafana/ELK, and mentoring junior engineers to deliver scalable production systems.
