What I'm looking for

I’m looking to join an Agile team where I can design clean, scalable backend APIs and full-stack features, ship production code fast (often with AI-assisted development), and grow real-time performance using modern JavaScript/TypeScript.

I’m a results-driven Software Engineer with 5+ years of progressive experience in end-to-end development. I specialize in designing, building, and scaling robust RESTful APIs, full-stack solutions, and real-time systems—especially in demanding, production environments.

My work is backend-first, anchored in clean architecture, strong problem-solving, and delivering reliable systems through Agile/Scrum collaboration. I’m highly proficient in the modern JavaScript/TypeScript ecosystem, with deep experience across backend frameworks, frontend technologies, and relational databases.

In my recent roles, I’ve shipped production features across web and mobile. At Dormot, I worked on a live real-estate platform—developing robust backend APIs and translating Figma designs into responsive, pixel-perfect interfaces using Next.js and Tailwind CSS, while extending client-side state management with React Query.

Across my earlier experience, I delivered high-throughput and real-time capabilities, including Socket.IO-based messaging with thousands of concurrent connections and performance improvements through Redis caching (20%+ improvement). I also bring strong API expertise—authentication, authorization, API versioning, and structured error handling—plus practical DevOps support with Docker and a focus on clean, maintainable code.
