01 — About

Building systems that
actually scale

I'm a Senior Software Engineer with over 7 years of hands-on experience spanning data extraction pipelines, end-to-end QA automation, and full-stack development. My career has been shaped by shipping production-grade systems for US healthcare, global travel platforms, and large-scale data intelligence products.

At Arbisoft, I grew from Data Analyst to Senior Software Engineer, leading cross-functional teams, architecting automation frameworks, and mentoring junior engineers — all while staying deeply hands-on in code.

Currently, I'm pursuing an M.Sc. in Computer & Systems Engineering at Technische Universität Ilmenau, Germany, deepening my expertise in systems research alongside industry practice.

I thrive at the intersection of automation, data engineering, and software quality — building tools that make complex workflows fast, reliable, and invisible.
