What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build scalable, reliable systems—especially high-throughput, event-driven backends—where I can lead architecture, improve performance, and partner cross-functionally to ship real-time features with strong engineering rigor.

I’m a Senior FullStack Engineer with 9 years of experience designing high-throughput backend systems, with deep expertise in Node.js, Vue.js, MongoDB, and hands-on experience with Elasticsearch. I’ve led architecture for a real-time event processing system handling millions of daily transactions, and I’m comfortable balancing product needs with reliability, performance, and scale.

Across Vector Software, DevOcean Solutions, and Devision, I’ve built and optimized distributed, event-driven architectures using microservices, database sharding/performance tuning, and strong monitoring/logging practices. I bring cross-team tech leadership—shaping system design, partnering with product managers on new features, and improving engineering quality through CI/CD and automated testing frameworks (Jest, Mocha, Pytest, Unittest).
