(01) About

Full stack engineer. Six years in production.

Six years. Five industries. One habit: shipping software that holds up under real traffic. I've built AI-native SaaS with RAG pipelines, digitised loan management for GSMA, and engineered agritech backends behind platforms that serve over fifteen million farmers. I move comfortably from a Figma frame to a Kubernetes cluster, and I care just as much about the 60fps animation as the p99 latency.
