I am a seasoned backend developer with over 7 years of hands-on experience specializing in system design and architecture across diverse domains. Known for a proactive approach, strong problem-solving skills, and the ability to bridge the technical and business aspects to drive project development. My expertise lies in the development of scalable APIs within a microservice architecture using Kotlin, Java, Spring Boot, Docker, K8s, databases (SQL and noSQL), message queues (Kafka) and cloud (AWS, GCP). I am also familiar with Python, which is my secondary programming language. In addition, I have extensive experience working with complex systems, such as payments processing or algo-trading. I am a solid team player, knowledgeable in Agile Scrum methodology and able to analyze and deconstruct complex tasks collaboratively, even with a lack of specification, design or any other uncertainty. Lastly, I am an open-source contributor, so I invite you to take a look at my featured projects on my Github page.
