Building systems that scale

I'm a software engineer who started with Java and expanded into Python, Go, PHP, Dart, and JavaScript — designing and delivering solutions across web, mobile, and infrastructure. I care about clean architecture, reliable deployments, and experiences that feel right for the people using them.

Currently a software engineer leader at NTIS, I worked on multiple projects spanning backend services, cloud infrastructure, and full-stack applications. I'm looking for growth-oriented teams where I can contribute deeply while continuing to learn.
