Full-stack developer with 5 years of hands-on experience building and shipping production web applications and workflow automation for freelance and enterprise clients. I own projects end to end—from REST API design and PostgreSQL data modeling to JWT-based authentication and React/TypeScript frontends. I have a DevOps-first mindset (Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions CI/CD) and enjoy working directly with founders and small teams on milestone-based delivery. I’m currently deepening my NestJS experience on top of my Node.js/Express background, and I’m available for remote freelancer engagements with weekly progress reviews.
