Fullstack Enginner | MERN | Next | Node | SaaS | Python
I’m a Senior Full Stack Engineer and Technical Lead with around 10 years of experience building scalable saas platforms, AI powered applications, marketplaces, fintech products, real estate platforms and enterprise software. Over the years I've worked with startups, growing businesses and enterprise clients, taking products from MVP through production while also leading engineering teams, making architectural decisions and mentoring developers. My focus has always been on building software that is maintainable, scalable and reliable rather than simply delivering features. My experience spans the complete software development lifecycle, from architecture and database design through frontend, backend, cloud infrastructure, deployment and long term maintenance.

I proactively identify risks, communicate clearly, challenge technical decisions when appropriate and focus on building software that remains maintainable as products grow. Whether working independently or alongside an existing engineering team, I aim to become a trusted technical partner who helps move the product forward. If you're looking for someone who can build from the ground up, improve an existing platform, integrate AI capabilities or provide senior technical leadership, I'd be happy to discuss how I can help bring your product to the next stage. Whether you need someone to build a product from the ground up, stabilize an existing platform, integrate AI capabilities or provide technical leadership for a growing engineering team, I can help take the product from idea to production while keeping quality, security and maintainability at the center of every decision.
