I've been shipping production code for over last 10 years.
Senior Full-Stack Engineer with 10+ years shipping production systems across fintech, e-commerce, and social platforms β most recently as Founding Engineer at an early-stage startup.
I work end-to-end: backend architecture, frontend, and the infra underneath it. Two backend stacks I know deeply β NestJS/TypeScript and Laravel/PHP β plus React / Next.js / React Native on the front.
- Architecting systems that handle tens of millions of requests/month
- Migrations and rewrites (legacy β Modular Monolith / DDD, cloud right-sizing)
- Building CI/CD, observability, and test suites from zero
- Real-time infra (WebSockets) and distributed, async-first team leadership
