What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can own end-to-end features—performance tuning, scalable backend data flows, and modern React/Next.js UI—while applying AI/LLM automation. I value clean architecture, Agile collaboration, and measurable reliability improvements.

I build production-grade full-stack products focused on performance, reliability, and scalable architectures. I’ve delivered Node.js applications (Express, NestJS) in microservices, optimized database technologies (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB) with indexing and schema tuning, and shipped enterprise UI experiences using React and Next.js.

Most recently, I improved API performance by isolating CPU-intensive endpoints, optimizing Sequelize queries, and leveraging raw queries where applicable. I also designed a dynamic, lazy-loaded filtering system for 6M+ creator records, refactored UI architecture to enable white-labeling, and built an entire property intelligence platform from scratch with NestJS, ScrapingBee, and LLM-powered chatbot + automated report generation. I’m equally comfortable integrating payment workflows (Stripe, PayPal, Venmo), engineering secure backend systems, and hardening CI/CD and cloud deployments across AWS and GCP.
