I’m a Senior Full Stack Engineer with 10+ years of experience building and scaling user-facing products. I focus on data-driven growth and reliable engineering to ship experiments that move acquisition, activation, and monetization metrics. I enjoy leading cross-functional teams, defining hypotheses with product and analytics partners, and delivering robust platforms that thrive under heavy traffic and frequent experimentation. My approach blends software craftsmanship with product thinking: I turn complex problems into scalable systems, measure outcomes with rigor, and iterate quickly to improve user activation and revenue while keeping production stability across distributed environments.
