What I'm looking for

I’m looking to own backend architecture and build secure, scalable APIs and microservices end-to-end. I want teams that value observability, clean engineering practices, code reviews, and responsible AI-assisted delivery.

I’m a Senior FullStackSoftwareEngineer with 8+ years of experience designing, building, and owning backend systems—from architecture through production. I specialize in Node.js and NestJS, delivering scalable REST APIs and distributed, event-driven architectures with Kafka and RabbitMQ.

I’ve implemented secure authentication and authorization using JWT/OAuth2, enforced compliance-driven access control with audit logging, and ensured systems are observable with proper structured logging and error handling. My work spans both relational and NoSQL databases, including PostgreSQL, MySQL, MSSQL, MongoDB, with hands-on schema design, query optimization, and indexing strategies.

I also bring product-minded engineering across the stack: building React.js interfaces with Tailwind CSS, developing microservices for workflow automation, and supporting real-time features with WebSockets. I collaborate closely through code reviews and mentoring, and I leverage AI-assisted tools like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude, and ChatGPT to accelerate delivery while maintaining full ownership and code quality.
