WORK EXPERIENCE
I have one year of commercial experience as a Full Stack Developer,
specializing in building scalable web applications and integrating modern
architectural solutions. During my 8-month work at UApp, as a full-stack
developer for marketplace platforms using React and Node.js. I also
optimized internal processes by automating content generation using AI
and custom Python scripts. Also, I spent 4 months at Triare, where I
contributed to the development of a comprehensive real estate platform
with server-side integration of the Google Gemini API to significantly
expand the platform's capabilities.

MY PROJECTS

MyBooks: Backend project I worked on as a Node.js Developer,
focusing on building a robust and scalable REST API. I implemented a
strict layered architecture using Express to ensure clean separation of
concerns and system maintainability. Engineered the data layer using
PostgreSQL and Prisma ORM. Utilized Docker specifically to
containerize the PostgreSQL database and a Redis instance, optimizing
application performance through efficient data caching and rate limiting.

MyEstate: Full Stack project built with Next.js. I focused heavily on
robust server-side development, engineering secure API routes and
structuring clean backend data flows. A major technical highlight was
designing and implementing the server-side integration of the Google
Gemini API to power advanced AI-driven features and setting up AI
Persona, ensuring a highly scalable, secure, and optimized application
architecture.

Cafe-service: I developed a scalable remote ordering system featuring
role-based interaction workflows for clients, managers, and staff.
Designed a relational database schema using PostgreSQL and
implemented type-safe query management via Prisma ORM. Architected
the application using a hybrid structure of Modular Principles and
Feature-Sliced Design (FSD) to ensure weak coupling. Implemented
secure, role-based access control (RBAC) and routing mechanisms using
custom middleware. Managed server-driven client states and streamlined
API communication protocols.

UtilityPay: Utility bill payment project I worked on as a Fullstack
developer included developing requirements specifications and
implementing functionality. I applied a hybrid architecture combining
Feature-Sliced Design and modular principles for scalability. Built type-
safe backend communication layers and implemented business logic for
secure billing operations using Next.js API routines. Structured the data
layer using PostgreSQL and Prisma ORM, optimizing database
interactions.
