About Me

Career Summary

With over 6 years of experience in backend engineering, I specialize in designing and implementing scalable microservices architectures, event-driven systems, and cloud-native applications. My expertise spans across multiple domains including iGaming, fintech, and enterprise software.

I have a proven track record of building systems that handle millions of requests per day while maintaining high availability and performance. My approach combines solid engineering principles with pragmatic problem-solving to deliver robust solutions that meet business objectives.

Engineering Philosophy

✓
Simplicity Over Complexity: Choose the simplest solution that solves the problem effectively. Complex systems are harder to maintain and debug.
✓
Performance Matters: Every millisecond counts. Optimize for throughput and latency from the ground up.
✓
Observability First: You can't improve what you can't measure. Build comprehensive monitoring and logging from day one.
✓
Test Rigorously: Automated testing provides confidence in deployments and enables rapid iteration.
