What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a collaborative team where I can build scalable, data-driven applications end to end—designing REST APIs, shipping reliable releases with CI/CD and Docker, and growing my AI/NLP skills through real-world projects.

I’m a full-stack and DevOps-focused software engineer with a Master’s in ICT and a background in bioengineering. I specialize in data-driven applications, combining analytical thinking with software engineering principles to design scalable, efficient, and reliable solutions.

In my recent role as a Software Engineer (Full-Stack & DevOps), I developed backend-focused applications using .NET, Java, PHP (Laravel), Python (FastAPI/Flask), and Node.js (Express). I designed and delivered RESTful APIs for backend services and system integrations, and worked with React and Vue.js to improve performance, scalability, and high availability.

I also manage Docker-based deployments and CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions and Azure DevOps, so delivery workflows stay reliable from build to release. I enjoy translating requirements into maintainable APIs and production-ready services, with a strong emphasis on continuous improvement and dependable engineering practices.

Beyond production work, my projects and thesis keep me close to applied AI: I built an AI-powered job matching platform with an NLP-based approach and REST APIs plus a React dashboard. I’ve also developed a role-based Dietitian app with secure authentication, implemented an HRV-based seizure detection pipeline with Python, and created a mobile food donation platform with scalable backend data structures—so I’m motivated to contribute to real-world systems while growing in a collaborative environment.
