What I'm looking for

I'm seeking senior full-stack roles in remote, cross-functional teams where I can design and deliver scalable cloud-native systems, improve performance, and lead automation, testing, and best practices.

I am a Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer with 8+ years building scalable, high-performance applications across industries. I excel at designing and delivering both front-end experiences and robust back-end services.

At Polcode I designed enterprise features, optimized backend services for high availability, and created component libraries and documentation to improve developer efficiency. Previously at Allianz Technology and UiPath I implemented scalable architectures, AI-powered features, and production integrations.

I work effectively in fully remote, cross-functional teams and prioritize code quality, test coverage, and clean architecture. I have hands-on experience with React, Next.js, Node.js, NestJS, cloud platforms (GCP, AWS), Docker, and microservices.

I focus on performance optimization, automated deployment pipelines, monitoring, and developer productivity; I enjoy solving complex systems from concept to production and mentoring teams on best practices.
