Overview

Full-stack engineer who enjoys designing backend systems with a strong focus on correctness, scalability, and long-term maintainability.

I build production-oriented SaaS platforms by focusing on clear system boundaries, failure modes, and operational simplicity. I care about well-defined APIs, predictable real-time behavior, and architectures that can evolve without major rewrites.

I approach engineering with a product mindset — balancing technical decisions with usability, performance, and real-world constraints.
