Profile
Hello
I'm a seasoned full-stack software engineer and a certified Salesforce Commerce Cloud B2C Developer (SFCC, SFRA, PWA Kit / Headless Commerce). My expertise extends beyond coding – I offer versatile consulting services tailored to your needs. I provide expert advice and guidance on software development, implementation, optimization, and integrations. I analyze client needs, design tailored software solutions, and oversee the development process. I also offer technical support, troubleshoot issues, and ensure that software systems align with business objectives and industry best practices. My reliability and experience have been greatly appreciated by those with whom I have worked.
Whether you're seeking to breathe life into your innovative ideas, enhance existing software solutions, or smoothly migrate your websites to different platforms, I've got you covered. My commitment is to turn your aspirations into tangible results.
I've worked as a full-stack engineer, as a lead developer, and unofficially as a software architect too, for small scale applications, while also being close to the CTO and/or product managers.
Another thing I'm passionate about is fostering coding skills in others. Whether you're a novice looking to embark on your programming journey or already well-versed in the software realm, I'm here to guide you. Drawing from my experience as a programming tutor, I've received commendable feedback from those I've assisted. We can embark on the coding adventure together.
My daily work includes:
My friends consider me an open-minded, hard-working, organized, funny, friendly, loving & dedicated person. In the work teams I take part, I always make my colleagues laugh
Feel free to say hello and add me on social media. I like knowing new people :)

Software Engineer (full-stack) / Lead
@ Total Image Media
Bucharest
Worked closely with the CTO in a small local team for architecting new software and developing existing code, with focus on stability, security and performance, 3rd party integrations; maintaining and upgrading legacy code, as a lead developer / tech lead.
Technologies used the most were PHP, javascript, mysql, CSS. The most used framework was codeigniter. Used laravel in a few occasions and other custom MCV frameworks too. On the frontend I had to stay with jquery.
Our main site had to be perfect SEO-wise and optimized as much as possible. This means I put a lot of effort in the markup, reducing javascript, caching heavily, lazy-loading, UX etc.
