Senior .NET Backend Developer specializing in Enterprise PPM, fintech, payments, and enterprise systems. I build scalable ASP.NET Core and Azure microservices used by 235,000+ users, payment platforms, and enterprise SaaS products where reliability, performance, and maintainability directly impact business outcomes. With 7+ years of experience, I help companies modernize legacy .NET applications, build high-availability backend systems, optimize APIs, and deliver production-ready cloud solutions that continue to scale long after launch. I use Claude, Cursor and ChatGPT as a core part of my development workflow. This means faster prototyping, smarter debugging, cleaner architecture decisions and higher quality code review without adding delivery risk. I write the prompts, validate the output and take full responsibility for what ships. AI accelerates my work. It does not replace my judgment.
