What I'm looking for

Looking for a challenging role that leverages my expertise in full stack development, cloud-native applications, and team collaboration to drive business growth and enhance user experiences.

As a seasoned Full Stack Engineer with over a decade of experience, I bring expertise in building scalable, high-performance applications using modern frameworks and languages. I thrive in designing and implementing solutions that bridge the gap between front-end elegance and back-end robustness. With a strong background in contributing to projects that drive business growth, enhance user experiences, and solve complex technical challenges, I'm committed to delivering value through innovation and collaboration.

Throughout my 11+ years in the industry, I've had the privilege of working on various projects, from architecting cloud-native applications to optimizing system performance and mentoring junior developers. My expertise spans multiple programming languages, including React, Vue, Angular, Next, .NET, Java, Python, Rust, Ruby on Rails, Golang, and Node.

I'm passionate about staying up-to-date with the latest technologies and trends, ensuring that my skills are always current and relevant. With a strong focus on collaboration and innovation, I'm excited to bring my expertise to a new role and contribute to the success of a dynamic team.
