About Me

Shipped a production booking platform in 30 days with zero post-launch security incidents — one example of 5+ years delivering production-grade web applications across TypeScript, Java, Python, and PHP. Leading teams of up to 8 engineers while staying hands-on, owning architecture decisions, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud infrastructure on AWS and GCP.

I specialise in delivering high-quality, scalable solutions using Next.js, Node.js, and Java Spring Boot — paired with cloud deployment on AWS and GCP. Known for delivering under pressure, mentoring teams through rigorous code reviews, and turning complex requirements into clean, scalable software.

When not shipping features, I enjoy helping others and sharing knowledge — a value rooted in my time leading the UCSMTC technology committee at UCSM.
