What I'm looking for

I seek senior technical leadership roles where I can architect high-load systems, scale engineering teams, drive cost-efficient infrastructures, and deliver secure Web3 and analytics products in growth-oriented engineering cultures.

I am a strategic technology leader and architect with over 15 years building high-scale platforms across Web3, e-commerce, and big data analytics. I design cost-efficient, high-load architectures (OLAP/OLTP) and secure DeFi protocols that support large transactional volumes.

As Head of Engineering and Technical Architect I have launched analytics platforms from zero, implemented hybrid storage (PostgreSQL + ClickHouse) and delivered AI-powered tools such as a natural-language SQL explorer and a <20KB zero-dependency SDK for full data capture.

I scaled teams from 2 to 30+ engineers, founded an internal blockchain school, and led migrations of high-volume e-commerce platforms to modern stacks. I have designed systems supporting $1B+ in annual sales and tokenization platforms exceeding $10M TVL.

My hands-on stack includes Node.js, NestJS, TypeScript, ClickHouse, PostgreSQL, React/Next.js, Solidity and AWS; I prioritize engineering culture, security (high audit scores), and infrastructure cost optimization to deliver robust, production-grade systems.
