> Full-Stack Software Engineer | Node.js • TypeScript • SQL • DevOps Automation | Building Secure, Scalable Systems

Location: Niagara Falls, New York, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/devante

Software Engineer with a background in IT automation and security. I design and build reliable systems from full-stack apps (Node.js, TypeScript, React, SQL) to backend automations that integrate directly with infrastructure.

I’ve led software projects end-to-end, deployed production apps, and built internal tools that saved teams hours of manual work. My mix of software engineering and IT/security experience helps me think about performance, maintainability, and data safety together.

Currently leading development and infrastructure for Borderworx Logistics while exploring new engineering challenges in fast-moving product environments.
