Software Architect and backend engineer with experience designing and building SaaS platforms, backend systems and web applications across multiple business domains.
Throughout my career I naturally evolved from software developer into technical leadership and software architecture roles. I enjoy understanding the entire problem space, designing scalable solutions, and staying involved throughout implementation—from architectural decisions to hands-on development whenever needed.
One characteristic that has remained constant across every project is taking ownership of the problems that need to be solved, even when they fall outside my formal responsibilities. Whether the challenge involved architecture, databases, infrastructure, automation, documentation, development processes or mentoring, my focus has always been identifying bottlenecks, proposing solutions and helping projects move forward.
I have designed and implemented REST APIs, SaaS products, distributed backend systems and complex business platforms using technologies including TypeScript, Node.js, NestJS, Angular, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL, AWS and Docker, while also contributing to cloud infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines.
I have also led technical teams, defined software architectures, established engineering standards, planned technical work using Agile methodologies, and supported developers through code reviews, documentation and mentoring.
Today I work using AI-driven software development workflows, leveraging autonomous coding agents to accelerate implementation while maintaining ownership of architecture, technical decisions, solution validation and overall code quality. I see AI as a force multiplier that allows me to focus on the highest-value engineering work rather than replacing engineering judgment.
I'm particularly interested in opportunities where I can combine software architecture, backend engineering, technical leadership and complex problem solving to build scalable, maintainable products that create real business value.
