(Contract only)

Experienced (10+ yrs) full stack product engineer. Very good at both web & mobile & desktop apps, APIs, Postgres, Linux, mentorship, and communication in general. Touch typist, VIM ninja, refactoring monster. With an academic background of philosophy.

Been developing a lot of different projects for different teams, company types (startups, scale-ups, enterprise) and industries (fintech, adtech, edtech, e-commerce, BI).

My technical specialty is building simple systems with few moving parts that contain as little accidental complexity as possible. I'm pragmatic but always chase proper implementations at the same time. I don’t easily buy the hype nor subscribe to every new shiny tool & paradigm. I focus on robust & reliable software as much as possible.

My business specialty is caring greatly about understanding your domain, business model, figuring out your product priorities and actually iterating fast. In a world where the majority of software projects fail and the majority of engineering hires disappoint, I am promising you the peace of mind of knowing that you have an actually capable engineer beside you who understands your business model, cares about your investment and is able to make good judgements.

Always looking for interesting & challenging projects and smart people.

Feel free to contact if you don't have the luxury of failure.
