Software Engineer with 3+ years of experience building frontend applications, backend services, automated testing pipelines, and AI-powered developer tools.
At my current company, I've improved Angular applications, built Spring Boot microservices with 100% unit test coverage, automated Playwright regression testing (reducing execution time from 2 hours to 30 minutes), and developed an AI-powered MCP server that generates Playwright tests from natural language, reducing test authoring from 45 minutes to under 2 minutes per spec.
I enjoy building products end-to-end rather than working on isolated tickets. Recently I've been focused on AI developer tooling, RAG pipelines, MCP servers, and LLM-powered automation alongside traditional backend development.
Some highlights:
• Spring Boot microservices and REST APIs
• Angular, React, Next.js, Node.js
• AI Agents, MCP, RAG pipelines, vector databases
• Playwright automation and developer productivity tools
• AWS, CI/CD, SQL
I'm looking for a remote backend, full-stack, or AI engineering role where I can own features, work closely with a product team, and build software that ships to users. Startups and product companies are especially interesting.
If you're looking for an engineer who enjoys solving problems, automating repetitive work, and shipping production-ready software, I'd love to talk.
