Hi, I’m Alex 👋
Backend-leaning Full-Stack Developer
I design and implement backend-first systems with a strong focus on security, access control, and data integrity. I’m comfortable working across the stack, but my strength is in backend architecture — APIs, authentication, authorization, auditability — and building UIs that accurately reflect backend state.
🧠 Engineering Focus
Backend system design & API architecture
Authentication, authorization, and RBAC
Audit logging & data traceability
Secure handling of sensitive data
Clear contracts between frontend and backend
I value explicit system behavior, clear ownership, and maintainable designs over clever abstractions.
🏗️ What You’ll See in My Repositories
My repositories are architecture-driven, even when they include UI:
Secure admin dashboards representing backend state
API gateway & access-control configuration tools
Role-based access and audit logging models
Architecture diagrams and API examples
The UI is used as a tool to reason about backend systems, not as the primary focus.
🛠️ Technical Stack (Representative)
Backend
REST API design
OAuth 2.0 / JWT
RBAC & policy enforcement
PostgreSQL, Redis
Go / Python / Node.js
Frontend
React / TypeScript (admin & internal tools)
Practices
Architecture-first development
Security-aware design
Documentation-driven APIs
🧩 Domains I’ve Worked With (Portfolio)
Healthcare data platforms (FHIR concepts)
FinTech transaction monitoring & fraud signals
Secure API gateways for AI systems
Public-sector / government-style data portals
These projects are designed to reflect real production constraints.
🎯 What I’m Looking For
Backend-heavy or platform-oriented roles
Full-stack roles with real backend ownership
Teams that care about correctness, security, and long-term maintainability

If you’re reviewing my GitHub, start with the README files — they explain the design decisions behind the code.
