About

Software Development Engineer with 4+ years building production-grade full-stack systems. I started with React and gradually expanded my stack, adding Node.js, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and AWS as real project demands required it. I prefer learning things when I actually need them and applying immediately; that's proven more effective for me than learning in advance. I have a testing mindset - thinking through edge cases, failure modes, and data integrity before they become production issues. I also genuinely enjoy maintaining and debugging others' code, and I try to leave codebases cleaner than I found them, whether that's during a bug fix or a refactor. On NCEL Connect, I took on broader responsibility - drafting architecture proposals, discussing them with the CTO, and mentoring interns and junior developers through complex workflows. Recently I've been working with Claude Code and Kiro for spec-driven development, translating requirements into structured specs before writing a line of code. Weekdays I ship. Weekends I work on my portfolio - deliberately building features I haven't had the chance to implement professionally yet. Open to full-stack or AWS-focused roles where the systems are complex and the work is collaborative.
