Linux & DevOps engineer with 9+ years of experience building and automating infrastructure at scale, combined with a strong background as a Senior Software Engineer specializing in Node.js and React. I build scalable, reliable, maintainable, and secure web applications, and I design the infrastructure that keeps them running smoothly in production.
Currently at ALTEX Romania, where I manage CI/CD pipelines, containerized workloads with Docker, and real-time messaging systems (Kafka, RabbitMQ) serving production environments. I'm also pursuing the CKA certification to formalize my Kubernetes expertise.

I'm an adaptable and reliable team player who values clear communication and close collaboration. I care about writing software and building infrastructure that is simple to operate, easy to reason about, and a pleasure for the next engineer to work with. My goal is to deliver innovative, value-driven solutions across industries — whether that means shipping a new feature, hardening a pipeline, or designing a resilient platform from scratch.
