I’m a full-stack developer building scalable, event-driven web applications with measurable performance gains.
What I'm looking for
I’m a full-stack developer with 4+ years building scalable web applications across the JavaScript/TypeScript ecosystem. I focus on owning architecture end-to-end—especially backend systems that need to stay fast, reliable, and easy to evolve.
In my most recent role, I owned the end-to-end backend architecture of a production e-commerce platform using Express.js, MySQL, Redis, and AWS. By architecting and implementing cache-aside with TTL-based invalidation, I reduced API response times by 35%, while also improving global delivery speed through AWS (EC2, S3, CloudFront) and Cloudflare configuration.
I also specialize in REST API design, event-driven systems, and third-party integrations. I’ve built real-time stock, pricing, and order-status synchronization using ERP webhook processing, WebSockets, and Kafka; and I’ve maintained consistent search results by building Algolia indexing pipelines and automating Google Merchant Center feed generation.
Previously, I helped migrate a legacy monolith to NestJS microservices (Docker multi-stage builds and event-driven communication), improving deployment reliability and scalability. I enjoy writing clear service contracts with Swagger/OpenAPI, delivering type-safe data access with PostgreSQL and TypeORM, and building user-facing experiences with React and Next.js.
