Profile / 00

Built for the
work behind it.

I’m a software developer with AWS Cloud Practitioner experience, focused on turning product requirements into dependable systems.

My work spans Golang, Express (Node.js), FastAPI services, React, Next.js, Svelte, PostgreSQL and MongoDB data models, secure authentication, and production deployments using AWS EC2, Nginx, PM2, and Linux.

Alongside hands-on EC2 deployment experience, I understand core AWS cloud concepts, services, security, architecture, pricing, and support—giving me a solid foundation for building and operating cloud-ready applications.

I enjoy the details that make software dependable: clear API contracts, thoughtful validation, useful error handling, secure access, and deployment workflows the whole team can understand.

Open to backend, cloud, and DevOps opportunities
