What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Full-Stack & AI Engineer with 10 years of experience building production-grade, end-to-end systems across startup and enterprise environments. I specialize in modern frontends with React and Next.js, scalable backends with Node.js, Python, Asp.Net, Laravel, and Java/Spring Boot, and AI-powered workflows using LLMs and automation tools.
