About

🏖 🎾 🏊‍♂️ 🚴‍♂️ 🏕 Experienced developer and team leader with 10+ years across IoT platforms, SaaS products, industrial automation IDEs and enterprise CRM systems — designing and building many of these from the ground up. I work primarily in PHP, Python and JavaScript, delivering production-ready solutions with Laravel, Django, Node.js and React. I take end-to-end ownership across backend architecture, API development and process management; I guide teams technically and operate across a broad responsibility spectrum ranging from Kanban process design to server administration. Strong advocate of free and open source software — Debian GNU/Linux and GNU/Emacs user for over a decade. Prefer remote, flexible work culture.
