About Me

Engineer focused on scale, reliability, and polish

I specialize in building dependable platforms end-to-end—robust backends in Java/Go, modern UIs in React, and cloud infrastructure on AWS. I enjoy simplifying complex systems, adding the right abstractions, and leaving things faster, cleaner, and easier to operate.

Recent work spans distributed updates on FreeBSD nodes, CI/CD integrations, and real-time control centers with rich telemetry. I care about craftsmanship: readable code, useful metrics, crisp UX, and zero-surprise deployments.
