I am a software developer & infrastructure engineer with extensive experience across full-stack development, cloud operations, and DevOps. I work with both enterprise clients and large gaming communities โ building and maintaining everything from cloud-native services to self-hosted on-premises infrastructure.
My core areas of expertise:
- Backend Engineering โ Building high-performance APIs, automation tools, and enterprise-grade services in C# and TypeScript.
- Cloud & DevOps โ Designing and operating secure, scalable infrastructure across Azure, Cloudflare, and hybrid environments.
- Infrastructure & Networking โ Running production-grade systems on Proxmox, Docker, and Linux with full networking control.
- Frontend Development โ Developing modern web applications across React, Vue, Next.js, Nuxt, and Blazor.
- Database Engineering โ Managing and optimizing PostgreSQL, TimescaleDB, and MariaDB at scale.
- Game Server Infrastructure โ Building and operating full infrastructure stacks for large gaming communities.
I thrive on solving complex, real-world problems โ whether for enterprise applications, cloud-native platforms, or gaming communities.
