about me

Passionate about building solutions

Clean architecture, scalable systems, real impact.

I'm a Software Engineer and Technical Team Lead with hands-on experience leading cross-functional teams and delivering production-ready backend systems. My focus is on clean architecture, database design, and secure API development.

From designing normalized relational databases to implementing JWT/RBAC authentication, WebSockets, and Docker-based deployments — I care about code that lasts and systems that scale.
