About Me
I'm a Fullstack Developer (MERN stack) with 7+ years of professional experience, primarily working as the sole Frontend Developer on a highly successful ASP.NET MVC enterprise platform. While my main focus is frontend architecture and UI/UX implementation, I've consistently contributed to backend development by modifying view models, implementing controller logic, and supporting business logic validations.
Since 2018, I've been independently delivering complex features from start to finish — ensuring usability, performance, and cross-browser consistency, while collaborating closely with backend teams to build cohesive full-stack solutions.
In parallel with my day-to-day role, I’m also the founder and sole developer of a live, revenue-generating SaaS platform built entirely on the MERN stack. I’ve designed and implemented the full architecture — frontend (React), backend (Express), database (MongoDB), and DevOps pipelines — including Dockerized deployment on DigitalOcean with CI/CD automation via GitHub Actions and Nginx configuration. The platform has a growing user base, operates seamlessly in a live environment, and continues to evolve based on user feedback.
While I’m not a full-fledged backend developer in the .NET ecosystem, I’m highly proficient in navigating, understanding, and extending existing backend systems. In the MERN stack, however, I operate fully as a fullstack engineer — from schema design and API architecture to security and production deployment.
Tech Overview:
- Frontend: React, Next.js, JavaScript (ES6+), SCSS, jQuery, Razor Views
- Backend: Node.js (Express), MongoDB, MySQL, REST APIs, PHP, C# (basic), ASP.NET MVC
- DevOps: Docker, Docker Compose, GitHub Actions, CI/CD, Nginx, DigitalOcean
- Other: HTML5, CSS3, Git, Responsive Design, SEO, Agile methodologies
I’m passionate about building robust, maintainable, and scalable applications — whether improving legacy enterprise systems or launching new cloud-native products from scratch.
