Iβm a full-stack engineer with 3.5+ years of hands-on experience building and scaling production-grade web platforms, currently pursuing a Masterβs in Computer Science in the U.S.
Iβve worked in product-driven companies and startup-style teams, where engineering decisions directly impact performance, scale, and real users. My experience spans high-performance frontend systems, scalable backend services, and cloud-native infrastructure, with a strong focus on AI-powered applications and DevOps-driven systems.
I enjoy solving real problems β optimizing performance, simplifying architecture, and building systems that hold up under scale.
