I'm a Senior Full-Stack Developer / Tech Lead with 9+ years of experience building web applications, real-time systems, and web3 integrations. I focus on React, Node.js, and EVM-based DeFi products, including wallet and smart contract integrations. I enjoy owning projects end-to-end, from designing architecture to implementing frontend/backend and handling deployments. I thrive in collaborative environments and love turning complex requirements into robust, scalable solutions. In my roles, I bridge product and engineering, align cross-functional teams, and mentor peers to raise delivery standards. I’ve led distributed teams on on-chain projects, built decoupled microservices, and advocated for maintainable DevOps practices while delivering polished user experiences.
