About Me

I'm a full-stack engineer who has shipped real products on remote contracts for clients in the US and Europe. I work across the whole stack, from the frontend a user sees to the backend, deployment, and hosting that keeps everything running.

My background in QA means reliability is a habit, not an afterthought, so what I build is tested and holds up in production. I'm especially drawn to AI, and I like finding practical ways to put it to work inside real products.

Work Experience

An AI agent for Unity & Unreal Engine, much like Claude Code but for game development. As a QA Engineer on a remote US contract (San Francisco), I safeguarded release quality by authoring 40+ structured P0 to P2 bug reports across 10+ build cycles, cutting the rate of critical defects reaching release.

Contributed to Aviso's Conversation Intelligence Module frontend, collaborating across backend, QA, and data-science teams and participating in code reviews. Shipped a full redesign that reached real users and resolved multiple customer-reported bugs.

An Agentic AI 'Copilot for Unity' that utilizes LLMs to execute tools, control Unity, and streamline game development. Contributed as a Quality Assurance Engineer directly alongside the founders (Mar 2025 - Feb 2026).

A comprehensive property booking platform featuring real-time calendar synchronization with Airbnb and Booking.com via Smoobu, seamless Stripe payment integration, and robust database management.

An AI agent for tacit-knowledge extraction that captures hard-won expertise through a voice interview pipeline and structured LLM output. Built with Next.js. Currently in active development.

Built a polished gym website for Fitness Nation with a grounded AI voice assistant that answers questions about memberships, training programs, timings, and classes online 24/7. The experience is designed to feel like a real concierge for visitors and prospective members.

A secure Dockerized deployment mounted on Contabo Cloud. Key contributions involved securing SSH access via OpenVPN and fixing critical data loss problem.

An innovative platform combining AI and public speaking enhancement. Offers real-time feedback on speeches, AI-powered slide creation, and comprehensive delivery analysis.
