NowMeet

A social discovery platform designed to turn shared interests into real-world connections. I built the product end-to-end, from the PostgreSQL data model and REST API to AI matching, private messaging and production deployment.

InfraMap

Infrastructure Intelligence Platform

A field-first platform for managing technical infrastructure across communication sites, industrial facilities and enterprise buildings. It brings site maps, indoor navigation, equipment inventory, topology, schematics, documentation and maintenance history into one operational workspace.

Designed from real field experience.
After years of arriving at sites where critical knowledge was scattered across people, photos, drawings and folders, I started building the product I wanted technicians to have.

Building the bridge between field engineering and software

InfraMap is an active concept product. The interface and product architecture are evolving as I translate real infrastructure workflows into a usable digital system.

Under the hood

I think in systems, not screens

The value is not only in the interface. It is in clean data flow, reliability, maintainability and deployment.

Engineering approach

From product idea to production system.

I translate user needs into data models, APIs, real-time interactions and deployable infrastructure. My background in RF and network engineering shaped a practical mindset: isolate failures, validate assumptions and build for real operating conditions.

Engineering evolution

One engineering mindset. Two worlds

For more than a decade I engineered communication systems operating in laboratories, equipment rooms and real field environments. Software engineering became the next layer—not a replacement—allowing me to build complete products from infrastructure to user experience.

Every stage added another layer to the engineer.
Systems thinking, fault isolation, validation and ownership remain the foundation of how I build software today.

The connection between both worlds

Hardware taught me to validate every layer. Software gave me the tools to design those layers end-to-end.

Let’s work together

Looking for a motivated junior developer?

I'm looking for my first developer role. I bring strong engineering fundamentals from 11+ years in RF systems, two deployed production projects, and a genuine drive to grow fast in a professional team
