About

A full-stack engineer who likes building the parts users see and the systems they never notice.

I work across the full product layer: the polished screens users interact with, the APIs and data models behind them, the cloud services that keep them running, and the real-time integrations that make them feel alive.

Backend systems

Scalable APIs, domain services, relational data models, webhooks, auth, and integration-heavy workflows.

Frontend dashboards

Clean, responsive admin and technician dashboards with real-time UX, role-based access, and analytics screens.

Cloud and real-time

Azure App Service, PostgreSQL Flexible Server, Functions, Storage, MQTT messaging, and deployment pipelines.

Tech stack

Tools I use to ship production software.

The stack is grouped by how employers and engineering teams actually evaluate work: frontend, backend, data, cloud, integrations, and core engineering habits.
