Senior AI & Full-Stack Engineer
I design, build and operate web systems from architecture to deployment.
End-to-end engineering across product, backend, frontend, data, quality and AI.
Working with AI agents and coding assistants to accelerate development, turning around features faster while raising the quality bar through generated tests, reviews and automation.
Turning complex business requirements into production-ready web applications.
Scalable REST APIs, authentication and authorization, third-party integrations, webhook handling and data integrity.
High-performance, responsive interfaces for dashboards, internal tools and client-facing platforms.
Reliable architectures designed to run smoothly beyond the local development environment.
Maintainable codebases backed by automated testing, security reviews and observability.
I think about the system around them.
I work across the entire stack instead of treating frontend, backend and infrastructure as isolated silos.
Good architecture makes future changes easier and prevents routine features from turning into month-long crises.
Code is never finished when it only works locally. It must survive deployment, edge cases, unexpected traffic and ongoing maintenance.
I use modern tools including AI-assisted development to accelerate output while retaining full ownership of code quality.
Senior roles spanning product engineering, backend architecture and cloud operations.
SLA-driven Laravel systems for a confidential Australian client, across AWS, Azure, Kinsta and Ploi.
Backend architecture and full-stack development for two early-stage products: Imaginary Ones and Bubio.ai.
Founding engineer of a SaaS video-creation platform; built the backend and rendering pipeline, then maintained and scaled the mature platform.
Primary technologies first. Everything else stays quiet.
I use AI as an engineering multiplier - not as a replacement for engineering judgment.
Explore the codebase and requirements before writing a line.
Break work into verifiable steps with clear acceptance criteria.
Accelerate implementation with AI-assisted drafting and iteration.
Generate edge-case coverage and validate against real behavior.
Personally audit output for architecture, security and correctness.
Deploy with confidence and own the result in production.
AI accelerates research, boilerplate and edge-case test authoring. Architecture, security and runtime correctness stay under human ownership.
I'm a full-stack engineer based in the Philippines with more than a decade of experience building web applications and business systems.
My strongest background is in Laravel and Vue/Nuxt, but my work increasingly spans Node/NestJS, PostgreSQL, AWS and modern cloud infrastructure.
Over the years I've worked on everything from internal tools and administrative systems to customer-facing products and independent applications.
I enjoy the difficult part: turning messy requirements into software that actually works.
Looking for a senior engineer who can take ownership beyond writing tickets? I'm open to senior full-stack engineering opportunities, long-term product work and technically interesting projects.
