About Me
As a Fractional CTO and Senior Software Architect, I don't just write code: I bridge software engineering with Digital Marketing to scale businesses securely. I develop robust web architectures, mobile solutions, and leverage Artificial Intelligence to completely automate complex business processes. Beyond pure technical execution, I apply rapid idea validation frameworks and engineer data-driven marketing systems to test and scale the business model.
What I focus on:
Full-Stack Architecture
I build solid, scalable web architectures with React, Next.js, Node.js, and .NET Core: reliable backends and carefully crafted frontends, made to last.
Mobile Development
I develop cross-platform mobile apps (iOS and Android) with React Native and Flutter, with real attention to performance and everyday usability.
AI & Automation
I build custom AI solutions (chatbots, LLM agents) and automation flows between CRMs and back-ends with Python and n8n, to remove repetitive manual work.
Cloud & Scalable Systems
I design and run cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure) and distributed systems built to scale: Docker containers, CI/CD, and architectures that handle load and growth without rebuilds.
Growth & Data
More than code: I take the product to market. GA4/GTM server-side data, technical SEO and Core Web Vitals, Google and Meta Ads, and fast validation (Product-Led Growth) to grow acquisition and sales.
The Journey
Evolving from fundamentals to senior architecture.
My passion started a long time ago. If you're curious, you can take a look at my first software project: a retro video game (Pong).
