Backend Software Engineer with 4+ years of experience building scalable services in Golang. I specialize in designing and implementing microservices, REST and gRPC APIs, and cloud-native applications that are secure, reliable, and easy to maintain.

In my previous roles, I’ve developed production systems in Go, deployed services on AWS using Docker and Kubernetes, and implemented secure authentication flows with OAuth2 and JWT. I’ve also built CI/CD pipelines, written integration and end-to-end tests, and worked in Agile teams to deliver features and resolve production issues.

Technologies I work with: Go, REST, gRPC, AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, CI/CD, OAuth2.
