Full-stack Product Engineer building modern, production-ready apps for companies and myself.
Over the past decade, I worked with small to mid sized companies as a full-stack product engineer and fractional CTO.
Since my teenage years, I’ve helped them craft and evolve their digital presence. What started as websites grew into native applications, and eventually into end-to-end product ownership.
As of now, I work at the overlap of product strategy and hands-on engineering. I operate at the architecture and technical leadership layer, then drop into implementation when delivery needs direct execution. In fact, I love building things as much as I love planning them.
Also in the last few years, I’ve been working extensively with AI tools to help me build things faster and better.
Most of my engagements are direct collaborations with founders and lean teams who need senior-level judgment without unneeded burocracy. The goal is to ship useful things quickly while keeping the system understandable, maintainable, and low complexity. Keeping the AI tools in check and using them extensively but with the right oversight.
