Embedded Software Developer | Full-Stack Web Developer | AI Apps development enthusiast
I build practical software systems across hardware and web: from embedded and electronics work to production-style full-stack applications.
- Cross-domain execution: embedded, backend, frontend, and automation.
- Product mindset: I structure projects so they are understandable, runnable, and reviewable.
- Learning velocity: I maintain active sandbox and prototype repositories to continuously sharpen skills across stacks.
- Collaboration-ready workflows: organized documentation, repeatable setup, and clear repository conventions.
| Project | What it demonstrates | Stack |
|---|---|---|
| web-app-prototypes | Multi-project portfolio repo with two independently runnable products (Django app + full-stack TS monorepo) | Django, NestJS, React, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Docker |
| learning-sandbox | Structured multi-language learning environment with consistent commit conventions and ecosystem-specific playgrounds | Angular, React, Django, Python, C# |
