What I build

6+Years Experience
6Production Systems
10M+Users Reached

Senior Software Engineer passionate about designing and building scalable web applications, real-time platforms, and cloud-native solutions. I thrive on complex challenges and take pride in shipping software that people actually rely on.

I architect full-stack systems end-to-end - from modular React SPAs to NestJS microservices and AWS infrastructure. I ship faster with AI, using Claude Code, Cursor, and AgentOS as core parts of my engineering workflow - not as experiments.
