Software Engineer

Software that scales.
Products that feel simple.

I build reliable web applications and backend services with a focus on performance, maintainability, and user experience.

Practical engineering: clear requirements, clean code, dependable delivery.

Field Log

Manifesto

Engineering as craft, shipping as discipline.

I build software that stays maintainable as it grows: clear interfaces, measured performance, and dependable systems that teams can trust.

Measure before you optimize.

Keep systems boring and reliable.

Ship small, learn fast.

Process

From requirements to release.

Each project starts by clarifying goals, constraints, and the user journey. From there, we design the architecture, build iteratively, and ship with confidence.
