01About

Fullstack engineer.
Scalable Systems.

I'm a Senior Full Stack Engineer specializing in scalable web applications, SaaS platforms, and AI-powered products. I design and build production-ready software across frontend, backend, databases, cloud infrastructure, and system architecture.

I enjoy solving complex engineering challenges—from designing APIs and optimizing database queries to improving application performance, scalability, security, and developer experience. I take ownership of the entire development lifecycle, from architecture and implementation to deployment and monitoring.

My daily stack includes React, Next.js, Node.js, NestJS, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Docker, Cloudflare, and modern AI tooling. Performance, maintainability, accessibility (WCAG, IBM Equal Access), SEO, Core Web Vitals, and clean architecture are built into every project from the start.

03Experience

Where I've worked, what I shipped.

    • Build and maintain 30+ AI-driven apps for Western markets, each serving 10K to 1M users.
    • Led the infrastructure migration of 10+ of these apps from self-managed Kubernetes to Cloudflare's serverless stack (Workers, D1, R2), saving an estimated ~$5,000/month on infrastructure with significantly less ops overhead.
    • Executed database migrations from PostgreSQL to Cloudflare D1 (SQLite) myself, handling schema conversion, data dumps, and final cutovers.
    • Migrated storage from AWS S3 to Cloudflare R2 and built a custom CMS adapter for the new bucket logic.
    • Designed and built a multi-agent AI pipeline (Node.js & TypeScript) running on two e-commerce products with 12+ agents handling keyword research, competitor crawling (via Playwright MCP), content and image generation, schema markup, SEO audit, launch verification, and CMS publishing.
    • Developed a custom CLI wrapper routing agent calls through the Claude Code binary to hit flat-rate subscription pricing rather than per-call API billing, implementing a fallback mechanism for Vision tasks.
    • Owned architecture decisions under tight deadlines, proposed what to ship versus cut, and built reusable internal libraries that the team shared across projects.
