I'm a Software Engineer focused on backend development and system architecture, with strong foundations in computing and low-level systems.
My background in Electrical Engineering (with emphasis on computing) shaped the way I approach software: understanding systems end-to-end — from hardware and networking layers to backend services running in production.
I enjoy building systems that are reliable, efficient and scalable, combining backend engineering with IoT and embedded systems.
Currently I work mainly with Python backend development, API design, database modeling, and containerized environments, while also developing firmware for ESP32-based IoT integrations.
My main interests are centered around:
- Backend Engineering
- Distributed Systems
- System Architecture
- IoT Systems
- Performance & Reliability
- Linux-based infrastructure
- Python
- Flask
- FastAPI (learning & experimenting)
- REST API design
- PostgreSQL
- MySQL
- SQL query optimization
- Relational data modeling
- Docker
- Docker Compose
- Linux
- Git
- C / C++
- ESP32 firmware
- Hardware/software integration
- Embedded systems
