About
Full-stack engineer with deep expertise in designing and deploying scalable, high-performance web applications.
I'm a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with 4.5+ years of hands-on experience building production systems that handle millions of users. My passion lies at the intersection of engineering excellence and real-world impact—crafting solutions that are not just performant, but maintainable, scalable, and user-centric.
Currently at Giga Solv, I lead frontend modernization and backend optimization for a Filipino OTT & media platform, collaborating closely with cross-functional teams to deliver high-traffic solutions.
Core strengths: Modern JavaScript frameworks (Next.js, React), backend architectures (Node.js, Python), cloud infrastructure (AWS, Docker), and obsessive optimization for performance and SEO.

Engineering Philosophy
Performance First
Every millisecond matters. I obsess over Core Web Vitals, implement aggressive caching strategies, and optimize at every layer—from frontend bundle size to backend query patterns.
Scalable Architecture
Design systems to handle growth. I focus on clean APIs, proper indexing, load balancing, and infrastructure as code to ensure applications scale seamlessly.
Production Mentality
Real-world reliability is paramount. I implement observability, error handling, graceful degradation, and automated monitoring to ensure systems stay healthy at scale.
Developer Experience
Great code is a joy to maintain. I build modular components, write clear documentation, and establish patterns that make onboarding and collaboration frictionless.
