I'm a Backend Developer focused on designing scalable, secure, and clean architecture APIs using modern backend technologies.
I build reliable systems applying best practices in OOP, REST design, authentication, role-based access control, and DevOps fundamentals.

I enjoy contributing to real-world projects and collaborating in open source. Always learning, always shipping 🚀
