As a freelancer he’s delivered backend services, RAG pipelines and SSO improvements for scale-ups, and contributed security-focused tooling (hetty) that implements proxy-based HTTP/HTTPS interception and request/response modification. He enjoys joining startups and scale-ups to solve product and engineering challenges under tight deadlines, bringing both individual contributor depth and prior engineering management experience. His blend of production-grade systems work and low-level protocol tooling shows a rare mix of pragmatic product delivery and security-minded craftsmanship.
