What I'm looking for

I’m seeking senior technical roles where I can lead engineering teams, build scalable web/SaaS products, mentor developers, and improve processes in an Agile, collaborative environment.

I am a senior developer with several years of hands-on experience leading development teams and mentoring junior engineers across diverse industries and fast-moving Agile environments.

I specialize in building clean, maintainable, and performant web applications using Next.js, React, TypeScript, Node.js, PHP/Laravel, and various database technologies. I have a strong background in CI/CD, Docker, cloud platforms (DigitalOcean), and developer experience improvements.

I have led the full lifecycle of projects, from inception to deployment, managed cross-functional teams, and acted as a translator between technical and non-technical stakeholders. I built and scaled a SaaS platform (web apps, extensions, desktop apps) that was acquired.

I am dedicated to mentorship, code reviews, and fostering a culture of continuous learning while improving processes and tooling to increase team efficiency and delivery quality.
