What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a full-time backend developer role, working at the employer's location, remotely, or in a hybrid arrangement.

At newcy, I developed Kiprinfo, an AI-powered Cyprus knowledge base with a RAG pipeline that combines keyword and semantic search over a vector database. I also automated ingestion and continuous updates from websites and messaging APIs, and built a chatbot that answers from retrieved knowledge.

At newcy, I also developed VibeManager to analyze internal chats and generate daily operational summaries, with automated stalled-task detection, reminders, and financial obligation monitoring. For Kolla Cyberness Vendors Bot, I developed a chatbot that recommends services and estimates costs from user requirements and business rules.

Previously, at Aloha Mobile, I worked on mobile app APIs handling 4k rps, analytical reports over 50kkk rows, automated tests, and third-party integrations. My earlier work includes backend development, system administration, and project leadership across web, payments, search, and mobile projects.
