About

I build stuff. Sometimes startups, sometimes systems that should not scale (but do).
Over the years I've architected systems, real-time data pipelines, and applications used by thousands.
I co-founded Jobseekr.io (my side project) - 10k+ MAU for free, built platforms at early-stage startups, and shipped features from 0 → production more times than I can count.

Translation: if it runs on Python, TypeScript, or in the cloud, I’ve probably broken and fixed it.
