Hi, I’m Martin Petrov Smolyan. I’m a full-stack engineer with 5+ years of experience building and maintaining production web applications using JavaScript, Node.js, Express, React, and MongoDB. I’m execution-focused and hands-on, with a strong track record of delivering features end-to-end from concept to production. I’m comfortable working with existing codebases, improving functionality, and building practical solutions that streamline workflows and reduce manual effort. I’m a pragmatic problem-solver who balances speed with maintainability and I’m excited about applying AI and automation in production environments to enhance content creation and production pipelines. Beyond coding, I enjoy collaborating with product, design, and stakeholders to translate requirements into reliable software. I’m eager to continue growing in AI-enabled automation and to contribute to scalable, maintainable systems that empower teams and accelerate delivery in SaaS contexts.
