Now, I really feel at home in fast-paced environments where things are constantly changing. I thrive in a collaborative culture where teamwork is key. You can count on me to take an agile approach, using Scrum and Kanban methodologies. I'm all about conducting meetings like daily stand-ups, sprint planning, backlog grooming, and retrospectives. I truly believe that working together and adapting as needed is the way to go.
Delivering top-notch software products that meet users' requirements is what I'm truly passionate about. I'm proud of my ability to handle multiple projects at once without dropping the ball, always keeping a sharp eye on the details and focusing on what really matters. Thanks to that, I've had successful outcomes and satisfied clients.

This project involves creating a social networking platform designed for sharing short videos. Users can communicate through video or audio, ask intriguing questions, and answer them in video format. The goal is to help elderly individuals capture and share life stories with family and friends, preserving their memories for years to come. The platform includes several components:
● Web Version: Allows users without the full application to view videos, read questions, and access profiles and activities through a browser.
● Admin Panel: Manages reports, sends invitations, and oversees user interactions.
As a Full-Stack Engineer, I designed and built the entire application architecture from the ground up, both on mobile and server sides. I set up CI/CD pipelines using CircleCI, deployed the application on AWS Elastic Beanstalk with multi-container Docker, and integrated artificial intelligence to generate engaging questions and facts based on user data. I also developed unit and end-to-end tests to ensure comprehensive application coverage.
