Full-stack engineer focused on Go and security platforms. Currently building the MVP of GitDocAI — AI-powered documentation, Go backend, React and Angular frontends. Also a Go contributor on UTMStack, an open-source SIEM/XDR/SOAR — SOC-AI alert correlation, the UTMStack Agent, and cloud plugins.

01 · ABOUT

A software engineer at the intersection of backend systems and security

I build backend systems that handle the kind of data you can't afford to lose — security telemetry, IoT sensor streams, encrypted payloads. My stack is Go-first, with gRPC for service boundaries and Elasticsearch or PostgreSQL depending on what the query patterns demand. I care about correctness before optimization, and observability from day one.

Currently building the MVP of GitDocAI — an AI-powered documentation platform with a Go backend and React/Angular frontends. Also a Go contributor on UTMStack, an open-source SIEM/XDR/SOAR platform — SOC-AI alert correlation, the UTMStack Agent, cloud plugins, and vendor log filters for over fifteen sources.

I follow zero-trust architecture, AI-augmented threat detection, and the Go OSS ecosystem closely. Same discipline throughout: reliable systems in resource-constrained environments, shipped with observability from day one.

04 · STACK

Tools of the craft

Backend I ship with Go — distributed services, security pipelines, and the occasional desktop app. When the stack has to fit the problem I reach for the right tool: Next.js for product UIs, GTK4 or Wails for native Linux, gRPC and OpenSearch when data and latency matter.

Let's build something that matters

I'm open to remote backend roles, consulting contracts, and open-source collaborations. If you're building something at the intersection of security, systems, and intelligent infrastructure — let's talk.
