What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles building scalable, real-time systems where I can lead architecture, mentor teams, and improve observability and reliability.

I am a Senior Full Stack Engineer with 8+ years of experience building high-scale, real-time systems, specializing in Node.js, TypeScript and React. I have architected and scaled high-availability video conferencing infrastructure, real-time messaging platforms, and Kafka-driven analytics solutions while leading cross-functional teams.

I deliver secure, production-ready systems using OAuth2, JWT, Keycloak and RBAC, and drive DevOps automation with GitLab CI and Jenkins. My work spans backend API design, database optimization (PostgreSQL, MariaDB), cloud deployments (OpenStack, AWS), and observability for mission-critical telecom and cybersecurity products.
