I build distributed systems that handle real complexity — payments, energy, e-commerce — for companies like Scout24, RWE, and NETS.
From Galati at 16 to DAX-listed enterprises. 6+ years of shipping scalable backends, test-driven, across Europe.
At 16 I won an internship contest competing against college students in Galati. That firm hired me, and I learned Linux and web development hands-on before most people pick a major. I then moved to Cluj-Napoca for a Computer Science degree at Babes-Bolyai University — building the formal foundation under the practical instincts I already had.
After graduating I worked with progressively larger companies — culminating with DAX-listed enterprises like RWE and Scout24, and major EU and US players. I'm a generalist by pedigree but a specialist where it counts: performant, scalable distributed systems. I iterate with tests, automate relentlessly, and use AI tooling to accelerate workflows — not to replace thinking, but to spend more time on the problems that actually matter. Currently focused on payment services, with strong experience across energy and e-commerce.
I want to keep refining distributed systems that handle real complexity — not just traffic, but domain complexity. I'm looking for inspiring, smart engineering teams across Europe where high standards are the baseline and the problems are worth solving.
Real problems, real decisions, real outcomes.
Top 3 real estate platform in Austria. I adapted to a fully tested distributed system, drove SEO to all-time highs, and integrated marketing automation with Iterable.
Migrated a slow Java monolith to NestJS microservices. I introduced Worker Pools for parallel processing and used profiler-driven optimization to fix the real bottlenecks.
Nearly 3 years rotating across telecoms, payments, and academic publishing. The period that raised my bar and set the foundation for everything after.
