How I work

  • 01

    Performance & reliability

    Query tuning, indexing, and API design. I’ve improved response times by up to ~40% where it mattered, without sacrificing correctness.

  • 02

    Leadership & clarity

    Led small teams (3–5), ran code reviews, mentored juniors, and kept CI/CD and releases predictable.

  • 03

    Security by default

    JWT, OAuth2, API keys, and sensible auth flows integrated into products from day one — not bolted on later.
