PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY

Software Engineer, Sitecore Certified Professional, and AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner with 8+ years of experience delivering enterprise digital solutions across Healthcare, Travel, E-commerce, and Platform Engineering domains. Expertise spans Sitecore XP/SXA, .NET, cloud-native development, application modernization, DevOps automation, and scalable customer-facing platforms.

Proven track record leading Sitecore migrations, platform engineering initiatives, and high-traffic enterprise applications. Currently expanding into AI engineering, leveraging Python, local LLMs, AI agents, and modern frontend technologies to build intelligent, future-ready solutions.

I have always been fascinated by computers and the incredible possibilities created by new technologies. As a child, I spent countless hours playing games on my PC, captivated by computer graphics, interactive systems, and the idea that software could create entire worlds. Those early experiences sparked a curiosity that eventually led me to pursue a Bachelor of Engineering in Information Technology and a career in software development.

Over the past 8+ years, I have had the opportunity to design, build, and lead the delivery of large-scale enterprise applications across healthcare, travel, e-commerce, and digital experience platforms. I have led complex Sitecore migrations, modernized legacy systems, architected reusable platforms, and developed high-performance customer-facing solutions serving global audiences. What excites me most is solving complex problems through clean architecture, scalable design, and practical engineering that delivers real business value.

My technical expertise spans Sitecore, .NET, C#, AWS, React, Vue.js, JavaScript, CI/CD automation, cloud-native development, and modern software architecture. I enjoy building systems that are reliable, maintainable, and performant while creating great experiences for both users and development teams.

Outside of enterprise software, I continue to explore the technologies that first inspired me. I am passionate about 3D graphics, game development, Unity, Blender, space exploration, and emerging fields such as Artificial Intelligence. I actively experiment with local LLMs, AI agents, Ollama, LlamaCpp, AutoGen, Python, and modern frontend frameworks like Svelte. I enjoy learning how these technologies can be combined with cloud platforms and automation to create the next generation of intelligent applications.

At my core, I am an engineer who loves learning, building, and sharing knowledge. Whether I am architecting enterprise platforms, experimenting with AI, creating 3D experiences, or exploring new technologies, my goal remains the same: to build software that is elegant, efficient, and meaningful.

"Software should be an elegant blend of robust engineering and human-centric design. Every line of code should serve a purpose, and every user interface should feel like an intuitive extension of the user's intent."
