What I'm looking for

I seek roles building robust backend or embedded systems, emphasizing reliability, performance, and collaboration in distributed teams, with opportunities to work remotely and contribute to secure, system-level software.

I am a software engineer specializing in backend and embedded systems, with hands-on experience developing user-space drivers, network applications, and real-time telemetry modules using C/C++, Rust, and C#. I have contributed to production systems at Nokia Bell and KLM, delivered backend architectures for startups, and built secure communication solutions for embedded platforms.

I focus on building robust, scalable systems and improving reliability, performance, and maintainability through efficient implementations and strong collaboration in distributed, asynchronous teams. I am an open-source contributor and advocate for secure firmware and system-level development using Rust.
