About
I am a developer with many years of working experience, specializing in backend devlopment. My enjoyment from work comes from all steps of application development, from architecting a design from the start, and coding its implementation to the finish line.
Currently, I am a Software Engineer at Microsoft, working mostly with backend infrastructure. I design features for the company's security product, implement their functionality, and ensure the services maintain high availability and low latency with adequate test coverage and logs for debugging.
Having worked on various solutions and different tech stacks, I am very well-rounded in the skills that I have. I can adapt easily and learn new concepts very quickly. Facing challenges and foreign ideas motivates me to learn and constantly improve myself.
Working and designing with cloud solutions has been a big part of my developer career. I am continuously working with Azure at work and have a AWS Solutions Architect Associate certification in in the past.
