What I'm looking for

I’m seeking Senior or Lead Backend, Full Stack, or DevOps roles focused on high-throughput and payment systems, where I can deliver high-availability architecture and production results with full-cycle CI/CD, containerization, and monitoring.

I’m a Senior Full Stack Developer and DevOps Engineer with 12+ years designing and delivering high-availability banking, government, and e-commerce systems. I specialize in PHP (Laravel, Yii2, Symfony, CodeIgniter), React/TypeScript, and microservice architecture (DDD/CQRS), with full-cycle ownership from system design through CI/CD, containerization, and production deployment.

Currently, I support core banking platforms at PASHA Bank OJSC, maintaining 99.9% uptime for systems serving 500,000+ customers. I also lead cross-functional initiatives with risk management, compliance, and retail banking teams to implement regulatory changes, reduce compliance violations by 45%, and resolve critical production issues while mentoring developers to improve team resolution time by 35%.

Across contracts and projects, I’ve architected performance-focused backend and payment systems—like Supabase/PostgreSQL work serving 5,000+ concurrent users, and RESTful payment APIs processing 10,000+ daily transactions. I’m drawn to roles where I can ship reliable, high-throughput systems for fintech and payments—bringing measurable impact (e.g., 65% faster response times and 75% faster deployments).
