Full-Stack Developer

I build fast, scalable web products — from pixel-perfect interfaces to robust backend systems and cloud infrastructure.
About
Building products that scale.
I'm a full-stack developer with a passion for clean architecture and great user experiences. I work across the entire stack — from crafting responsive interfaces to designing resilient backend services and deploying on cloud infrastructure.
I enjoy turning complex problems into simple, elegant solutions. Whether it's a greenfield product or a legacy system that needs modernising, I bring structure and clarity to every project.

Services
What I do best.
Frontend Development
Pixel-perfect, performant interfaces built with React and Next.js. I care about accessibility, animation, and the details that make a product feel great.
Backend & APIs
Scalable server-side systems using Java, Kotlin, and Node.js. REST APIs, event-driven architectures, and solid database design.
Cloud & DevOps
Infrastructure as code, CI/CD pipelines, and container orchestration. I set up environments that are reliable, observable, and cheap to run.
