About()

Driven by a passion for creating innovative, high-quality solutions

I am a self‐taught software engineer with a deep passion for web development and a commitment to continuous learning. Since embarking on this journey at a young age, I’ve accumulated valuable experience delivering dynamic, high‐quality solutions across personal, freelance, and enterprise projects. With a keen eye for detail and performance, I pride myself on crafting robust, scalable applications that balance technical excellence with intuitive user experiences.

My drive for innovation has led me to explore and master a broad range of modern technologies, while my hands‐on approach and dedication to best practices ensure efficient, maintainable code. I’m a firm believer in teamwork and thrive in collaborative, Agile environments, where I can share ideas, mentor junior developers, and learn from colleagues. In every role, my focus is on creating tangible value—meeting tight deadlines, optimizing workflows, and exceeding stakeholder expectations.

As someone who constantly seeks fresh challenges, I look forward to contributing my expertise to a forward‐thinking team. Whether building new products from the ground up or enhancing existing platforms, I’m ready to take on any challenge that pushes the boundaries of what’s possible in web development.

A longstanding enthusiasm for web development fuels my professional journey
>= 08/2023
Senior Frontend Web Engineer
Betfair • Full-time
Cluj, Cluj-Napoca, România
At start, I contributed to developing extra feature sets for an existing service. As the company decided to scale the service—ensuring new components could be easily introduced and work remained isolated across multiple teams—I stepped into a Technical Team Lead role. I proposed the adoption of a microfrontend architecture, which was successfully implemented and significantly improved modularity and scalability. In this multifaceted role, I also took on DevOps responsibilities, designing AWS cloud architecture, establishing CI/CD pipelines in Buildkite, and mentoring team members. Later, I transitioned into a new vertical where I contributed to feature development for an existing iOS mobile application using Swift.

Endava • Full-time
Cluj, Cluj-Napoca, România
Initially focused on developing Vue components for client-facing projects, I then transitioned to delivering applications using React and Redux. Additionally, I worked on a unique ClojureScript project that significantly enriched my skillset. I not only learned and enjoyed working with ClojureScript, but also successfully delivered on its requirements.

FullStack Web Engineer
Activemall • Full-time
Galați, România
Started as a Junior Developer, primarily building and maintaining web applications with PHP (Laravel), MySQL, JavaScript, and jQuery. After establishing a strong full‐stack foundation, I transitioned to a specialized telecom team working with AngularJS. During this time, I also contributed to a European‐funded project—a cPanel‐like platform—assisting with feature development and performance enhancements for enterprise clients.
