Senior Full-stack Engineer

My journey into tech didn’t start in a traditional way. I’ve been working with computers since I was 15 — formatting machines, installing systems, and solving technical problems always came naturally to me. But growing up, I believed becoming a programmer required many years in university, and at that time, I didn’t see myself following that path.

At 16, I entered the music industry and spent nearly a decade there. During that period, I also experimented with different entrepreneurial ideas, driven by a strong desire to build something of my own. Eventually, as I started a family and had children, I realized I needed something more stable and scalable for the future.

That’s when I revisited programming and discovered that with discipline and focus, it was possible to break into the field without a traditional path. I worked as an Uber driver and saved enough money to support my family for six months — the time I committed to fully dedicate myself to learning development.

It wasn’t easy. In the fifth month, I was evicted and had to move back to my mother’s house with my two young children. But one month later, I landed my first role working with React and Node.js. I performed well and shortly after joined the company where I’ve been for almost four years now.

Since then, I’ve contributed to more than 10 projects, primarily building SaaS platforms with Laravel (TALL stack) and modern frontend frameworks like React and Vue. What makes me unique is resilience, ownership, and long-term commitment. I didn’t enter tech by chance — I fought for it. And that mindset reflects in how I approach engineering challenges today.

Now, I feel ready for the next challenge — one that pushes me to grow technically and professionally to the next level.
