ABOUT ME
Polyglot problem solver with focus on backend technologies
Polyglot problem solver with focus on backend technologies

I am a software generalist with 10 years of experience in backend and infra development, project planning, and team management. I have been working remotely with globally distributed teams for close to 4 years. I have built multiple 0-1 projects in gaming, fintech, healthtech, saas, and social domains. I consider myself a product-first engineer who builds reliable solutions with empathy for the end user. I am also a hands-on learner and an avid reader.
