What I'm looking for

I’m seeking hands-on roles at high-ownership teams building SaaS or ML-enabled products where I can drive product architecture, ship end-to-end systems, and iterate with users while owning DevOps and scaling.

I am a founder and full‑stack developer with 3+ years shipping production-grade systems end-to-end, focused on SaaS products and DevOps automation. I conceived, built, and operate MakeClient, a practice-management platform for CAs and finance firms, and previously co-founded Winqroo.

I architect and implement full stacks (React.js, Node.js, Express.js, MySQL) and own cloud infrastructure across AWS, GCP, and DigitalOcean using Docker, Kubernetes, Ansible, and CI/CD pipelines. I’ve led migrations, government production deployments, and built ML-driven features including a RAG chatbot that improved engagement and accuracy.

I thrive in high-ownership, fast-moving environments where user discovery, measurable outcomes, and iterative product development matter—I pair technical depth (frontend, backend, DevOps, ML) with founder-led product and go-to-market experience and paying customers on live products.
