~/about

Building solid interfaces() for complex products.

I focus on building interfaces that are clear, solid, and easy to use, paying attention to both the user experience and the quality of the structure behind it. I enjoy being involved in the whole process: understanding the problem, making technical decisions, and taking each solution all the way to production.

~/mindset

The mindset and values.

Always learning

I like learning new things and finding better ways to solve problems.

Team player

I enjoy working with others, sharing ideas, and reaching good solutions together.

Good environment

I value being on a team with good communication, where it's easy to collaborate.

Helping teammates

I like sharing what I know, reviewing code, and helping out when someone needs a second opinion.

With AI, it feels like almost anything is possible.

~/experience

12+ years of experience.

Frontend, architecture, and mentoring.

From startups to enterprise platforms.

Senior Full Stack Developer

BEON.tech (Remote) · Angular, .NET

Development of Tessitura, a large enterprise ticketing and CRM platform: reusable components, business logic, and data access across the Angular frontend and .NET backend, using a Controller-Service-Repository architecture and NHibernate. Supporting the migration from Angular 15 to Angular 21, modernizing deprecated code and validating existing functionality.

I join product and technical meetings to clarify requirements and estimate effort, write Jest and Playwright tests, and use Claude Code and AI agents for code analysis, implementation, and debugging — building custom Claude skills to automate recurring workflows and keep engineering tasks consistent.

Datasite (Remote) · Angular / React / Next.js

Contributed to the migration of a large application from Angular to React, focused on performance, scalability, maintainability, and accessibility, and worked on several Next.js projects building reusable, accessible components integrated with backend APIs.

As the sole frontend developer, I built a React Virtual Assistant integrated with an MCP server that lets users perform actions through natural language, and contributed to a public API portal built with Next.js. I used Claude Code, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot daily, and created custom Claude skills for recurring workflows.

Full-Stack Vehicle Marketplace

A full-stack vehicle marketplace I designed and built entirely on my own — from UX to architecture to code. Structured as an Nx monorepo with a NestJS API, an Angular storefront, and a separate Angular admin app, sharing typed libraries between frontend and backend.

  • Backend: REST APIs with NestJS, TypeORM, and PostgreSQL — JWT authentication, guards, DTO validation, Redis caching, featured-listing rotation, and an image pipeline with AWS S3 and CloudFront.
  • Frontend: Angular 21 and NgRx for authentication, listings, search, and the multi-step publishing flow. CI/CD with GitHub Actions, Docker, Fly.io, Cloudflare Pages, and Neon PostgreSQL.

Life off the clock.

When the laptop closes, this is where I am:

MusicNatureFamilyFriendsFootballCoffeeCoca-Cola

Outside the code, family and friends are non-negotiable — that's where I recharge. I steal time for music and the piano whenever the day allows, and I have a total — almost embarrassing — weakness for dogs and cats.

I love sunrises, sunsets, and any excuse to be near the ocean — the beach has always been one of my favorite places to disconnect.

And day to day, a few things rarely fail: a good coffee, an ice-cold Coca-Cola, and every once in a while, a beer to close out the day.

Not everything has to be complicated to be special.

Let's work together.
