PROFILE

Full Stack Engineer with 7+ years of production experience in TypeScript, React, and Node.js. Progressed from engineer to
Tech Lead and CTO, building and operating high-scale platforms in Web3, FinTech, and crypto-gaming. Most recently led
engineering on a Telegram-based crypto platform (TON ecosystem) that scaled to tens of millions of users — owning
architecture, hiring, on-call operations and partner integrations end to end. AI-native in practice: uses agentic tooling
(Claude Code) as a core part of daily engineering workflow, not as an experiment.
