I am a Senior Software Engineer with over 10 years of experience designing and developing scalable, high-performance backend and full-stack systems. My main expertise lies in the Java ecosystem, including Spring Framework, Spring Boot, and Micronaut, with a strong focus on microservices architecture, API design, and system integration. I also have solid frontend experience with Angular and Vue.js, which allows me to deliver end-to-end solutions when needed. I have worked on large-scale corporate and government systems, where reliability, security, and performance are critical factors. My experience also includes cloud-native development on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), containerization with Docker, and the implementation of CI/CD pipelines to improve delivery speed and system stability. Beyond technical skills, I value clean code, performance optimization, and collaborative work. I enjoy working closely with multidisciplinary teams, mentoring developers, and contributing to architectural decisions that generate long-term value. I am open to remote opportunities, international projects, and technical challenges where I can contribute to building robust and scalable software solutions.
