What I'm looking for

I seek backend or platform roles where I can design scalable architectures, lead teams, and deliver secure, high-performance systems with strong observability and TDD practices.

I am a backend engineer with 6+ years designing and delivering scalable, secure, high-performance web and fintech systems. I specialize in system architecture, database design, API development (REST & GraphQL), microservices, and cloud deployments, with a proven record of restructuring monoliths into maintainable microservices and reducing operational errors.

I've led and mentored cross-functional teams, implemented payment workflows and real-time features, and developed products across e-commerce, legal, Web3, and marketplace domains. I focus on clean, test-driven code, observability, and practical solutions that improve performance, reliability, and business outcomes.
