About Me
Iām a Senior Fullstack Engineer and Technical Lead based in Berlin, with over 15 years of experience building scalable, high-performance web applications and leading engineering teams.
My expertise spans both technical development and design, with deep knowledge in React, Next.js, Node.js, and AWS, combined with strong UI/UX design skills. I deliver clean, maintainable code and user-centered design systems across industries like fintech, classifieds, and e-commerce.
Currently, I work at a fast-growing fintech startup GoDiligent, An AI-driven platform built to analyze complex customer data and streamline due diligence for banks and fintech firms. I contributed to the integration of AI agents into compliance pipelines, developed interfaces to visualize risk insights, and ensured the system provides full auditability for enterprise-ready deployments.
I believe in mentoring, continuous learning, and building bridges between design, product, and engineering. My unique combination of technical expertise and design sensibility allows me to create solutions that are both technically sound and visually compelling. Check out my design portfolio to see this approach in action.
When I'm not coding, you'll find me traveling, behind the lens doing photography, deep into a good book, or enjoying a strategic game of chess. You can explore my latest technical projects or read my technical insights on modern web development.
