I’ve mostly worked in tech-driven sectors, especially building and maintaining enterprise web applications for industries like IT consulting, SaaS platforms, and digital services. I haven’t worked directly in conflict research or peacebuilding yet, but I’m excited about contributing my backend expertise to impactful organizations like ACLED.
I’m a senior full stack engineer with over 14 years of hands-on experience building backend systems, scalable APIs, and cloud-native applications. Most of my work has been with Node.js and Golang, but I have solid experience across a bunch of ecosystems—whether that’s designing RESTful and GraphQL APIs, optimizing databases with SQL and NoSQL, or deploying everything with Docker and Kubernetes on AWS. I love working remotely, value clear communication, and enjoy collaborating with global teams on challenging data-driven projects.
