Profile

I’m a software engineer who likes building pragmatic systems. I write Go backends, React frontends, and fullstack products that span web, mobile, and desktop. I’ve been shipping production software for more than 12 years, working with both startups and established companies.

My AI expertise helps companies save significant money by combining paid frontier models with locally hosted ones, or by deploying an open weight frontier model on local servers or in the cloud, cutting thousands of dollars in subscriptions to providers like OpenAI or Anthropic. The same path also guarantees the privacy of sensitive company information, ensuring it is not exposed to other organizations or accidentally shared by the models.

Experience

Also built a trailer kiosk that received sensor alerts like speed, cargo box cooling, tire pressure, and other readings and pulled a few apps together into one interface for the operators.

DoneHQ

Dec 2022 – May 2023

Extended WordPress sites by adding fields and functionality through the Advanced Custom Fields Pro plugin, wiring up custom meta boxes, custom blocks, and flexible-content layouts that integrated cleanly with the theme layer.

Maintained content health and indexability with ContentKing tracked crawl errors, monitored index coverage, flagged broken internal links, and reviewed changes before they hit production.

Audited the SEO of articles published on the company’s WordPress sites: meta descriptions, headings, internal linking, schema markup, canonical tags, and Core Web Vitals on the rendered pages.

eCloud

Jun 2018 – Feb 2021

As an Android Developer and Project Manager, I worked on the Welo app, a native Android application written in Java that provides transportation services to users. It incorporates a sharing economy model, allowing drivers to use their own vehicles to earn money by transporting customers who request on-demand services. My primary role involved maintaining, improving, and optimizing both the application and its infrastructure. I implemented a CI/CD process using Bitbucket and Pipelines on DigitalOcean.

SofiaXT

Feb 2017 – May 2018

We develop diverse applications that incorporate learning methods for primary and secondary school students, such as a literacy mobile application built using React Native, ReactJS, and Electron. The application is powered by an API we developed in .NET MVC5. Other solutions developed in previous projects include a web based mathematics platform using Laravel and Python, with a front end built using Bootstrap and jQuery.

Teknol

Jun 2016 – Jan 2017

As Project Manager, I oversaw the software department. We developed projects involving Ionic mobile applications powered by Laravel APIs, as well as touchscreen kiosk solutions using NW.js. We also built web solutions incorporating geolocation features with AngularJS and Laravel. I led and mentored the development team to ensure proper planning and execution across all projects.

Lanix

Jul 2014 – May 2016

Worked on the Lanix Android platform, integrating the OS layers on the devices the company shipped. Maintained the internal web tooling in PHP and ASP.
