What I'm looking for

I seek backend roles where I can build secure, scalable real-time systems, work in Agile teams, and apply advanced encryption and observability to high-availability services.

I am a backend developer focused on architecting secure, scalable real-time systems using Node.js, Java, and modern backend tooling. I built production-ready platforms with multi-layered encryption (client-side RSA-OAEP and Kyber-768 PQC), high-concurrency architectures, observability stacks, and resilient messaging pipelines.

I combine strong analytical skills and practical DevOps experience to deliver reliable services—implementing authentication/authorization, secure file handling, OCR indexing, AI integrations, and cloud-ready deployments. I thrive in Agile teams and prioritize security, performance, and maintainability.
