I've been writing code since I was a kid, and over the years, that passion turned into a profession focused on building robust, maintainable, and scalable software systems. As a Software Engineering Team Lead, I've successfully delivered full-featured platforms, from backend architecture to frontend design, deployment, and long-term maintenance. Most recently, I led the development of AutomationHub, a Spring Boot + React-based platform used for end-to-end telecom testing, both internally and externally. I'm proficient with technologies like Java, Spring, React, Redis, Kafka, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines. I also write documentation, participate in agile workflows, and lead small development teams with a focus on clean, maintainable code. I enjoy building things that work, also making sure they keep working. :)
