I am a seasoned Principal Software Engineer and Senior Full Stack Developer with over a decade of experience in building scalable and secure web and mobile applications. My expertise lies in modern technologies such as the MERN Stack, Cloud Services, and mobile frameworks like React Native and Flutter. I have a strong background in cloud technologies, including AWS, Azure, and GCP, which enables me to design and implement robust infrastructure solutions.

Throughout my career, I have led development teams, mentored junior developers, and delivered high-quality solutions that align with business goals. My proficiency in both frontend and backend technologies, along with my experience in DevOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, and containerization with Docker and Kubernetes, makes me a well-rounded professional. I am passionate about creating client-centric solutions that deliver measurable business value through technology.

I thrive in remote environments and have successfully managed global projects, ensuring strong communication and collaboration across diverse teams. My hands-on experience with integrating payment systems, developing RESTful APIs, and working with various databases like MongoDB, MySQL, and PostgreSQL has allowed me to contribute to the success of numerous projects. I am committed to continuous improvement and fostering a culture of excellence in every team I lead.
