I am a software developer & infrastructure engineer with extensive experience across full-stack development, cloud operations, and DevOps. I work with both enterprise clients and large gaming communities — building and maintaining everything from cloud-native services to self-hosted on-premises infrastructure.

My core areas of expertise:

• Backend Engineering – Building high-performance APIs, automation tools, and enterprise-grade services in C# and TypeScript.
• Cloud & DevOps – Designing and operating secure, scalable infrastructure across Azure, Cloudflare, and hybrid environments.
• Infrastructure & Networking – Running production-grade systems on Proxmox, Docker, and Linux with full networking control.
• Frontend Development – Developing modern web applications across React, Vue, Next.js, Nuxt, and Blazor.
• Database Engineering – Managing and optimizing PostgreSQL, TimescaleDB, and MariaDB at scale.
• Game Server Infrastructure – Building and operating full infrastructure stacks for large gaming communities.

I thrive on solving complex, real-world problems — whether for enterprise applications, cloud-native platforms, or gaming communities.
