Full-Stack & DevOps Engineer

Mostly self-taught. I learned by building real things — shipping features before I knew their names. Six years of delivering production systems end-to-end has only deepened the conviction that curiosity and hands-on ownership beat credentials every time.

About

I'm a self-taught engineer — no bootcamp shortcut, no hand-holding curriculum. I learned to code by shipping real things, debugging production failures at midnight, and reading source code until it made sense. That autodidactic foundation is the reason I can own unfamiliar problems end-to-end without waiting for permission.

Full-Stack & DevOps Engineer with 6+ years delivering production web, mobile, and infrastructure systems. I take full ownership from architecture to deployment — establishing coding standards and shipping performant, scalable solutions independently. Specialized in React / Next.js, Node.js, and strict TypeScript, with hands-on DevOps ownership (Docker, AWS, multi-tenant pipelines) and a security-conscious mindset (RBAC, HMAC, OTP, server-side verification).

Equally at home in product UX and the DNS / SSL automation underneath it — comfortable with the full surface area from React component to Kubernetes manifest to security policy.
