Lead Backend Engineer for scalable products & APIs

Healthcare, aviation, and SaaS — I design and ship backend systems that hold up in production. Full-stack when the product needs UI and APIs together.

About

Background

I'm a Lead Backend Engineer at Barq Group , building healthcare systems that hospital teams can operate and extend.

I focus on clear domain models, readable APIs, and reliable deployments. Backend-first — and I ship full-stack when clients or teams need web or mobile alongside the service layer.
