Full-Stack Software & AI Development | .NET, React, Azure

Building production-grade web apps, SaaS platforms, and automation systems that ship fast and scale clean 👋 Hi! I'm a Full Stack Software Developer with 10+ years of experience building production software: web applications, SaaS platforms, mobile apps, desktop tools, and automation systems used in real-world business environments. I don't build demos. I build software that gets deployed, maintained, and scaled. Over my career I've shipped 50+ production projects across web, mobile, desktop, and cloud, solving problems from complex business logic and third-party API integrations to performance bottlenecks and security hardening. My approach is grounded in clean architecture, clear communication, and code that the next developer can actually read. 🚀 What I Bring to the Table A complete product engineering skillset: frontend, backend, database, deployment, and automation, executed end to end without hand-offs. ✅ Full Stack Web Application Development ➤ Responsive, high-performance frontends (React, modern JavaScript, HTML/CSS) ➤ Robust backend APIs and business logic (Node.js, Python, PHP) ➤ Database design and optimization (MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB) ➤ Authentication, payments, and third-party API integrations ➤ Clean, documented, maintainable codebases built for handover ✅ SaaS Product Development ➤ Multi-tenant architecture, subscription billing, and user management ➤ MVP builds for founders who need to validate fast ➤ Feature roadmapping and iterative releases ➤ Admin dashboards, analytics, and reporting modules ➤ Scaling strategy as usage grows ✅ AI Integration & Intelligent Systems ➤ LLM-powered features (chatbots, content pipelines, document processing) ➤ OpenAI / Anthropic API integration into existing products ➤ AI workflow automation for internal business operations ➤ Data extraction, classification, and enrichment systems ✅ Automation & Bots ➤ Web scraping and data pipelines with anti-blocking strategies ➤ Browser automation and task bots for repetitive workflows ➤ Scheduled jobs, queue systems, and background processing ➤ Reporting automation that replaces manual spreadsheet work ✅ Mobile & Desktop Applications ➤ Cross-platform mobile apps for iOS and Android ➤ Desktop utilities and internal business tools ➤ Offline-first design and local data sync ➤ App store deployment and release management ✅ DevOps, Security & Maintenance ➤ Cloud deployment (AWS, VPS, Docker) and CI/CD pipelines ➤ Security auditing, input hardening, and vulnerability fixes ➤ Performance optimization and load handling ➤ Ongoing maintenance, monitoring, and bug-fix retainers ⚡ What Sets Me Apart ➤ 50+ original production projects shipped across web, mobile, desktop, and cloud ➤ Full ownership: I handle architecture, code, deployment, and documentation in one seat ➤ Business-first thinking: I build what moves your metrics, not what pads the invoice ➤ Transparent communication with realistic timelines. No surprises mid-project ➤ Long-term partnership mindset: most of my work comes from repeat clients Clients don't hire me for quick patches. They work with me to build software that becomes an asset: stable, documented, and ready to grow with the business. 📈 Have a Project in Mind? Whether you need a new product built from scratch, an existing codebase rescued and stabilized, an AI feature added to your platform, or a workflow automated end to end, I'll help you find the shortest path from idea to working software. 💡 Free Offer I offer a FREE Technical Scoping Session where I review your project idea or existing codebase and give you: 👉 A realistic architecture and tech stack recommendation 👉 A phased build plan with clear milestones 👉 Honest risk assessment (what's hard, what's easy, what to skip) 👉 A transparent effort estimate before you commit a dollar Let's talk about what you're building. 🚀
