👋 Full Stack / AI Engineer building scalable web apps and intelligent, automation-driven digital products.

Software engineer focused on turning complex ideas into fast, scalable and user-centered products. I specialize in full stack development with modern JavaScript ecosystems, designing and building APIs, web platforms and end-to-end systems that perform in real-world environments. In recent years I’ve been increasingly focused on integrating AI, automation and intelligent workflows into production systems, leveraging them to improve efficiency, product quality and user experience. I enjoy working close to product and engineering teams to ship practical solutions, not just code.
