From music production to a Full-Stack Developer with a strong focus on backend engineering, building clean, scalable, and secure web applications using modern technologies.

My development journey has been driven by curiosity, a commitment to continuous learning, and a passion for solving real-world problems. I began in frontend development with a drag and drop web builder, crafting intuitive and responsive user interfaces, and gradually transitioned into writing of codes and switching to backend engineering, where I now specialize in designing and maintaining reliable APIs and server-side systems.

Backend Expertise

I have experience building and maintaining production-ready systems with a strong emphasis on performance, security, and maintainability, including:

• ⁠RESTful API design & architecture
• ⁠Authentication & authorization systems
• Database modeling & data integrity
• ⁠API performance optimization
• ⁠Rate limiting, caching, and scalability strategies
• ⁠Secure protected endpoints and data handling
• ⁠Third-party API integrations
• ⁠Client–server communication & security best practices

Technologies

I currently work with and continue to deepen my expertise in:

• TypeScript
• Express.js
• Node.js
• Render
• PostgreSQL
• MongoDB
• Redis
• Resend
• Arcjet

In 2026, my focus is on mastering backend engineering best practices and system design while building robust, scalable APIs that meet real business needs.

How I Work

I’m highly practical in my approach—what I learn, I apply immediately to real projects. I value clean code, clear communication, and collaboration, and I enjoy working in teams that care about quality and long-term impact.

Beyond technical contributions, I’m passionate about mentorship and knowledge sharing, supporting junior developers, and fostering environments where people grow together.

Interests & Personality

Outside of coding, I enjoy mobile games, table tennis, soccer, instrumental music, reading, drawing, technology, sports cars, and fashion. These interests help keep me balanced, creative, and energized.

Current Work & Opportunities

I’m currently building the future at RentalWave and am open to full-time roles, contract work, and freelance opportunities where I can contribute meaningfully and grow with a strong team.

If you’re building a product and need a reliable engineer who cares about quality, impact, and collaboration, feel free to reach out or book a 10-minute discovery call.

I also offer free mentorship for junior developers (limited to 3 available spots).
