About

Curiosity is my operating system. Senior Full-Stack Engineer with 8+ years of experience building and modernizing scalable, distributed systems. I have worked on building microservice solutions from scratch, large-scale legacy migrations, reverse engineered softwares, and led research-driven development. Beyond enterprise systems, I actively explore R&D projects involving AI-driven applications, state machines, and performance engineering — constantly experimenting, learning, and building. I build outside of work too — including a personal AI-powered Robot Pet project and independent game development — driven by a constant curiosity for intelligent systems and emerging technologies.
