Founding / Senior Software Engineer | Python, Go, Java, React, Spring Boot, AWS, Kafka | Building AI-Powered Products 0→1

About

I build products from scratch, solo. Levelop is the proof. I designed and shipped an adaptive upskilling platform end to end: four backend microservices, Postgres 16, ClickHouse, Redis, three PgBouncer pools, Caddy TLS, 20+ Docker containers. No team. 228 signups, 41% activation, zero paid spend. I also built AI agents (a coding grader, a system design tutor with context ranking and three-tier model fallback), a recruiter outreach engine hitting 60% verified-contact rate, and a Claude-powered SEO pipeline that published 118 articles ranking for 1,000+ queries. Before that, 3.5 years at Freshworks. I re-architected Freshdesk's automation engine from Sidekiq workers into Spring Boot microservices with Kafka and Orkes orchestration. 2-3M daily executions, 30% faster. Also shipped Automation Templates that drove 35% more rule creation for new accounts. What I work with: Languages: Python, Java, TypeScript, JavaScript, Ruby, SQL AI: LLMs, OpenAI API, Claude, agentic workflows, prompt engineering, embeddings Frameworks: React, Next.js, Node.js, Ruby on Rails, Spring Boot Infrastructure: AWS (Lambda, Step Functions), Docker, Kubernetes, Kafka, CI/CD Databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, ClickHouse, Redis, BigQuery Looking for founding engineer, senior software engineer, or lead engineer roles in Amsterdam, Berlin, London, or Dubai. I want to own large technical scope, ship fast, and build something that matters. Hiring for a role like that? Let's talk. I reply to every message.
