I’m a Full-Stack JavaScript Developer focused on building production-ready web applications and backend systems for real-world products.
My work spans frontend architecture, API development, databases, CMS platforms, commerce integrations, and AI-powered systems. I enjoy turning product requirements into maintainable software with clear boundaries, reliable APIs, strong data integrity, and practical deployment workflows.
I primarily work with the React / Next.js ecosystem on the frontend and Node.js / NestJS on the backend, with hands-on experience across PostgreSQL, Prisma, MongoDB, Payload CMS, Shopify, and third-party AI APIs.
- 🏗️ Maintainable architecture — clear domain boundaries, reusable modules, and code that can evolve with the product.
- 🔌 Reliable backend systems — well-defined APIs, validation, authentication, authorization, data integrity, and integrations.
- 🤖 Practical AI integration — using LLMs where they create measurable product value rather than adding AI for the sake of it.
- 🚀 Production delivery — building systems that can move from an idea or MVP into a reliable, deployable product.
