Full-stack software developer delivering production-grade apps with design-driven product thinking.
What I'm looking for
I am a full-stack software developer with 4+ years of experience building production-grade applications across PHP (Laravel), Node.js, Next.js (React + TypeScript), Flutter, and cloud platforms like AWS and GCP. I bridge engineering and UI/UX product thinking to deliver measurable results, having optimized databases, improved performance, and shipped high-traffic payment and marketplace systems.
I have led and mentored teams, implemented robust CI/CD and API integrations, and launched features that scaled signups and transactions into the thousands. My work spans backend optimization, real-time systems, mobile interfaces, and end-to-end product delivery, focused on secure, maintainable, and user-centered solutions.
