What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on engineering role building scalable backend and API systems in a collaborative, security-conscious, remote-first team, with a strong focus on reliability, performance, and automation.

I am a Full Stack Engineer with experience building scalable SaaS platforms for finance and enterprise environments, focused on backend systems, API architecture, and cloud automation.

I am specifically looking for a fully remote role in a distributed team.

I've delivered production features using Next.js, NestJS, Rust, GraphQL and REST, and improved system reliability—building an automated HubSpot pipeline that removed manual CSV workflows and prevented recurring backend crashes.

I collaborate cross-functionally to reduce support load and operational friction, contributing to migrations (NestJS to Rust/Tokio/SeaORM), automated data migrations into AWS, and implementing testing with Jest and Cypress.

I value reproducible builds and robust deployments, and enjoy working in remote-first, distributed teams using modern cloud and infrastructure tooling such as Nix flakes, AWS (ECS/RDS/EC2), containerization, and monitoring solutions, with a pragmatic approach to translating business requirements into secure, maintainable systems.
