ABOUT ME

Ruby on Rails developer with 10+ years of experience

I have specialized in Ruby on Rails back-end development for over 10 years. Currently, I lead a small team of developers building SaaS products for manufacturing companies.

I have experience working on small and middle-sized web apps, but I am also interested in larger projects at scale. I have extensive experience in the startup world (like YC alumni Prizeo) and international businesses.

Throughout my software engineering career, I have built multiple greenfield web apps, REST JSON APIs, and 3rd party API integrations as part of smaller and bigger teams of developers, analysts, designers, and testers.

Happy to train and mentor less experienced colleagues and grow alongside more experienced ones.

I am ready and excited for my next (fully remote) adventure.
