I build systems that solve real business problems.

I'm a backend engineer with 7+ years of experience building software around real business problems.

My path into software engineering started with data and logistics. Early in my career, I worked with warehouse management systems, analyzed operational data with SQL, and used those insights to improve warehouse capacity and reduce storage costs. That experience shaped the way I approach engineering today: I like to understand how a business actually works before deciding what to build.

Over the years, I moved deeper into backend development and distributed systems, working with Java, Kotlin, Spring, reactive technologies, SQL and NoSQL databases, messaging systems, and Kubernetes-based environments.

For the last few years, my main focus has been payments and integrations. I've worked on 10+ payment integrations across Europe, LATAM, MENA, and Africa — from card payments and 3DS flows to mobile money and alternative payment methods. My work covers the full integration lifecycle: investigating APIs, designing solutions, communicating with external providers, implementing services, building automated and contract tests, releasing to production, and monitoring real-world behavior afterwards.

I also enjoy improving the engineering process itself. I've automated previously manual payment flows, improved integration testing, optimized CI pipelines, investigated production issues, and built tools that make complex systems easier to understand and operate.

Outside my main work, I build my own products and experiments. This gives me the opportunity to work across the whole product lifecycle — from an idea and data model to backend, UI, deployment, infrastructure, and actual users.

What interests me most is not a particular framework or programming language. It's the intersection of technology, data, and business — understanding a problem deeply and turning that understanding into a practical solution that creates measurable value.
