+  position: Software Engineer, AMScreen
+  bio: |
+    I am a software engineer with half a decade of professional experience building scalable, production-grade systems across fintech, banking, digital media, and data-driven platforms. My technical background spans backend engineering with C# and .NET, cloud-native architectures on Azure, event-driven microservices, distributed systems, and cross-platform mobile development using Flutter. I’ve worked on systems that support real users at scale, handle sensitive data, and generate revenue, with a strong focus on clean architecture, performance, security, and resilience.
+
+    Beyond delivery, I’ve taken ownership of system design decisions, collaborated closely with product and engineering leaders, and contributed to improving reliability, monitoring, and developer experience. I also hold an MSc in Cybersecurity, which informs my approach to building secure, trustworthy software.
+
+    I’m deeply passionate about mentorship and community impact. I’ve supported career switchers, junior developers, and beginners through one-on-one mentoring, speaking engagements, and community sessions. My goal as a mentor is to help mentees build strong technical foundations, confidence, and clarity in their career paths, while encouraging curiosity, persistence, and continuous learning.

+    mentee: |
+      I am looking for mentees who are curious, open to learning, and willing to show up consistently, regardless of their current skill level. You don’t need to have everything figured out, what matters most is a genuine interest in growing, asking questions, and reflecting on feedback. I particularly enjoy working with early-career developers and career switchers who may be navigating confidence gaps or uncertainty and who want guidance on building strong foundations in both technical skills and professional growth. I value honesty, communication, and a collaborative mindset, and I aim to create a supportive, judgment-free space where mentees feel comfortable making mistakes and learning from them. If you’re motivated to learn, willing to put in the effort, and open to exploring your potential in tech, we’ll work well together.
