About Me
I'm always chasing opportunities to grow. I genuinely enjoy learning new things, I pick up new technologies and concepts quickly, and I thrive in team environments where I can both contribute and learn from others. I'm comfortable working within Agile methodologies — sprint planning, daily stand-ups, and iterative delivery feel natural to me, whether I'm in a startup or a large corporate setting.
My main focus is full stack software development. I build secure RESTful APIs and distributed microservice architectures with Java and Spring Boot, connect them to dynamic frontends with React and Next.js, and containerize everything with Docker for easy, reproducible deployment. I'm also comfortable with DevOps practices and CI/CD-style workflows that keep applications easy to deploy and maintain. I've gained hands-on experience building microservice-based backends, integrating REST and SOAP APIs, and working with enterprise data infrastructure — and I want to keep developing my career in this direction.
Outside of software engineering, I enjoy exploring artificial intelligence, data engineering, and cybersecurity. I've trained deep learning and computer vision models, built generative AI pipelines, processed large-scale datasets to build optimization models, and conducted malware analysis in isolated lab environments. These areas keep me curious and often feed back into how I think about building secure, intelligent, and well-architected systems.
