Summary
I am a highly ambitious Senior Software Engineer with a Master’s degree in Computer Science and nearly 7 years of professional experience in Backend Development, Cloud Engineering, and DevOps across international environments. I am very adaptable and I have worked in diverse sectors, including Automotive, Finance, Telecommunications, and the Public Sector.
I specialize in building custom backend and cloud solutions with a tool-agnostic approach. Through my vast experience, flexibility and ability to effectively leverage AI tools, I can quickly develop high-quality applications in any backend programming language, design APIs, and build cloud infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for all major and minor cloud service providers.
Additionally, I focus on creating optimized CI/CD pipelines and designing containerized environments for seamless software management and monitoring. With my soft skills and Scrum expertise, I also look to enhance team efficiency and improve productivity. I strive to think outside the box and ensure that solutions are not only well-developed but also effectively marketed.
