Profile

Engineering that ships to production

Results-driven software engineering professional focused on backend and full-stack development, enterprise integration and cloud modernization.

I design, develop and deliver enterprise applications end-to-end — from architecture through production — across .NET, C#, ASP.NET Core, ASP.NET MVC, REST APIs, React, Angular, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, Azure, AWS, Docker and Kubernetes.

My work centers on event-driven microservices using Kafka and REST APIs, cloud migration, API development, database optimization and CI/CD automation, alongside modernizing legacy applications into modern, maintainable systems.

I've delivered complex enterprise integrations involving payment platforms, Dubai terminal & customs authorities, EDI, Microsoft Business Central and Microsoft 365 — and I design Azure-native and AWS solutions spanning serverless, containerized workloads, Azure Functions, Logic Apps, API Management and App Services.
