About

Senior Full Stack Developer with 5+ years building and scaling SaaS platforms from concept to production. I specialize in modern web stacks (Next.js, React, Node.js, Prisma, GraphQL, Tailwind, PostgreSQL) and enjoy owning problems across product, engineering, and delivery — from white-label enterprise systems to AI-assisted consumer apps. Highlights: - Shipped and scaled multi-tenant/white-label SaaS used by global brands - Strong product mindset: UX clarity, reliability, performance, and maintainability - Founder experience: building, deploying, and iterating real products (SlipCheck, Precision)
