About Me

Who I Am

A passionate full-stack developer crafting scalable, modern applications with a focus on clean code and great user experiences.

Building scalable platforms, infrastructure, and developer tooling

I am a full-stack engineer with strong expertise in backend systems, infrastructure engineering, and cloud-native application development. Over the years, I have worked extensively with Ruby on Rails, Python FastAPI, React Native, Docker, and Kubernetes to architect modern applications and production-grade systems.

My work extends beyond frontend development into backend infrastructure, cloud deployments, CI/CD automation, API optimization, observability pipelines, and self-hosted bare-metal environments running from my homelab infrastructure.

I enjoy solving complex engineering challenges involving distributed systems, reverse proxies, container orchestration, database optimization, monitoring stacks, and scalable deployment architectures.

I also enjoy building internal engineering tools that improve developer workflows and operational visibility. One of my projects, Docklog, is a self-hosted container management and logging utility designed to help teams monitor services, inspect logs, restart containers, and streamline infrastructure debugging from a centralized interface.

I strongly believe in clean software craftsmanship: building maintainable systems, reusable services, reliable deployment pipelines, and scalable architectures that are designed to last.

Product Engineering

Building scalable web and mobile applications using React Native, TypeScript, and modern backend systems with clean architecture and maintainable codebases.

Backend Systems & APIs

Architecting high-performance backend infrastructures using Ruby on Rails and FastAPI with expertise in REST APIs, WebSockets, Redis, PostgreSQL optimization, and scalable service design.

Cloud & Infrastructure

Managing deployments across AWS and self-hosted infrastructure using Docker, Kubernetes, Linux servers, reverse proxies, CI/CD pipelines, and production-grade monitoring systems.

Self-Hosted Infrastructure

Running and maintaining dedicated homelab servers for Kubernetes orchestration, observability stacks, GPU workloads, containerized services, reverse proxies, and infrastructure experimentation.

Developer Tooling & Automation

Building internal engineering utilities like Docklog for centralized log monitoring, container lifecycle management, infrastructure debugging, and developer workflow automation.

Performance & Reliability

Passionate about observability, performance optimization, database tuning, API latency reduction, infrastructure monitoring, and building reliable production systems at scale.
