Hi, I'm a software engineer focused on backend systems and developer infrastructure.

I'm currently building Watchdock (https://watchdock.cc ), a lightweight monitoring and error tracking platform designed to reduce noise and improve signal clarity for SaaS applications.

What I’ve done with Watchdock:

- Designed and implemented an error ingestion API

- Built event grouping & processing logic

- Developed a Python SDK for error capture

- Designed alerting workflows

- Deployed and managed production infrastructure

I enjoy working on backend systems, reliability, observability and tools that improve developer experience.

I’m looking for roles in backend engineering, platform engineering or infrastructure-focused teams where I can contribute to production systems.
