About

Senior Full-Stack Engineer with 5+ years shipping production SaaS platforms end-to-end — from system design and UI/UX to deployment and observability. I build multi-tenant products, provider-agnostic payment architectures, and AI-powered features that reach real users.

I've built and scaled multi-tenant products serving 100+ organizations across billing, fintech, scheduling and automation. My work spans deep AI integration (LLMs, RAG, function calling), provider-agnostic payment layers, and the cloud infrastructure underneath. I thrive in async-first, high-ownership remote environments where I can own a problem from architecture to production.
