Profile

Tech Lead / Dev Fullstack with 9+ years of TypeScript experience, including two and a half years as CTO at Minea (SaaS at €500k+ MRR). I enjoy building products end to end, from architecture to user experience, balancing technical requirements with business needs. When tackling complex technical challenges, I favor readable code and solutions that are easy to maintain and evolve.
