What I'm looking for

I’m seeking remote‑first roles where I can build and scale reliable, high‑performance products, lead technical design, and work with cross‑functional teams to deliver measurable impact.

I am a Senior Full‑Stack Software Engineer with 5+ years building and scaling production‑grade systems across FinTech, TravelTech, HealthTech, E‑commerce, and EdTech.

I design and implement clean, maintainable backend and frontend features using Laravel, Node/NestJS, Vue.js, React and Next.js, with a strong focus on performance and scalable architecture.

I have led end‑to‑end delivery on products used internationally, modernized legacy systems (including Laravel 5→10), and improved performance and engagement metrics through targeted optimizations.

I'm passionate about cloud‑native development, DevOps practices (Docker, Azure DevOps CI/CD), testing, and using technology to solve real‑world problems while maintaining strong security and code quality standards.
