Summary
Hands-on engineering lead and architect with more than a decade of building backend and full-stack systems from architecture through production, in environments where correctness is not negotiable. At MedDev Soft, a company specializing in medical-device software, regulation (FDA and Europe), and cybersecurity, I've led engineering teams for over four years while writing a large share of the code myself, across C#/.NET, Node.js, Python, and TypeScript. I'm an AI-fluent engineer: Claude Code, Cursor, and Copilot are my primary development tools, I've built LLM-powered features into products with evaluation and guardrails, and our AI-first development has cut delivery times by about 40%. I'm equally at home leading an R&D group and building complex systems myself, and my next challenge could come from any of these worlds.
Experience
CTO & Head of R&D · MedDev Soft
- Architect and build software end to end across backend and full-stack: C#/.NET, Node.js, Python, TypeScript, React, and React Native, staying hands-on in the hardest parts.
- Own architecture and technology decisions and implement them: cloud services and APIs on AWS and Azure, SQL and NoSQL data layers (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB), Docker and CI/CD.
- Develop AI-first: Claude Code, Cursor, and Copilot as primary daily tools, under clear review and guardrails, cutting delivery times by about 40%.
- Build LLM-powered features into client products, with evaluation and guardrails defined before deployment.
- Lead and mentor engineering teams of four to ten (development, QA, cybersecurity) while remaining the hands-on technical anchor; delivery under regulated processes (FDA, IEC 62304) where approximation is not an option.
Senior Software Engineer & R&D Manager · MedDev Soft
- Built device and full-stack software hands-on in C#/.NET, Node.js, Python, TypeScript, React, and React Native across many client projects, from architecture to production.
- Designed and implemented cloud-native systems on AWS and Azure, and set up CI/CD, quality, and secure-development practices.
- Did a large share of the core development myself while leading a small R&D team and coordinating delivery across disciplines.
- Introduced the first AI-assisted development practices that later scaled into the company-wide program.
Software & Algorithm Engineer · Rafael Advanced Defense Systems
- Developed real-time algorithmic components for classified defense projects in C++, contributing from early software development through to field operation.
- Led development processes and built the CI/CD pipeline.
- Created real-time display and decoding tools in Python and MATLAB, and performance-research tooling on Big Data platforms.
- Managed Azure DevOps and cross-platform development.
- Recognized with divisional and departmental excellence awards.
Technical Index Operations · Cortica
- Built automation and web-scraping tools in Python.
- Managed NoSQL databases (ELK) and server-monitoring systems.
- Tested and optimized web applications.
