I am a software engineer with 19+ years of hands-on software development experience, including 5+ years in frontend and 10+ years in backend. I build scalable web applications using React.js and Vue.js on the frontend, and Node.js, Ruby on Rails, and PHP on the backend. I have a solid grasp of MVC architecture and microservices, and I’ve used Shadcn UI, Material UI, and Tailwind CSS to create responsive, component-based interfaces. I’ve written reusable React components with functional programming patterns and hooks, and I’ve integrated REST APIs using Axios, Fetch API, and React Query. I’ve collaborated with UX teams to deliver pixel-perfect designs with strong performance and SEO through server-side rendering with Next.js. I thrive in collaborative, Agile environments with 2-week sprints, mentor teams, and emphasize robust testing (Mocha, Jest) and automation. I’ve worked with AWS services (S3, Lambda, SQS, CloudWatch) and serverless architectures, and I embrace AI-assisted tooling to accelerate problem solving. I communicate effectively across cross-functional teams and enjoy delivering high-quality software in remote work settings.
