What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build secure, scalable web systems—design REST APIs, strengthen authentication, and optimize data performance—while working with cloud-native practices like Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD to improve reliability.

I’m a detail-oriented software engineer with 3+ years of experience building secure, scalable, and high-performance applications. I specialize in designing REST APIs, implementing secure authentication systems, and optimizing database-driven applications, with a strong focus on secure coding and reliable system design.

In my recent work, I founded and led UaFamilia, improving frontend development efficiency by about 40–60% through reusable components and modular architecture, and increasing user engagement and session retention by an estimated 30–45%. Previously, at Brighter Logistics and Bit Systems, I developed logistics and enterprise applications with Django and React, delivering gains like a 35% efficiency increase, real-time tracking APIs that reduced manual processing time by 50%, and JWT-based authentication improvements that reduced security vulnerabilities by 40%.
