Senior software engineer with 9+ years of commercial experience building systems in fintech, banking, GIS, and enterprise software. I work in Rust and C#, with a focus on backend services, network programming, and data processing.
semantic-gateway β Semantic Layer / BI Gateway
Define business metrics and dimensions in YAML and query data through them over HTTP. Built on Apache DataFusion: semantic queries are translated into typed logical plans (no SQL string construction), with a pluggable data source abstraction and structured error handling.

blog-platform β Multi-component blog system
Full-stack system in a single Cargo workspace: REST API (Actix-web), gRPC services (Tonic), WebAssembly frontend (Yew), CLI tooling, shared client library, PostgreSQL.
Rust Actix-web Tonic Yew PostgreSQL
bank-statement-parser β SWIFT & ISO 20022 statement tools
Library and CLI tools for real-world banking formats: MT940 (SWIFT) and CAMT.053 (ISO 20022). Parse, convert between formats, and reconcile transactions across files.

quote-streamer β Real-time quote streaming service
Client-server system streaming stock quotes: subscription management over TCP, data delivery over UDP, multithreaded server with concurrent client handling.
Rust TCP/UDP Multithreading
image-processing-cli β Plugin-based image processor
CLI with a dynamically loaded plugin architecture: filters compiled as shared libraries (.so/.dll) and loaded at runtime.
Rust Dynamic loading CLI
Low-level implementations of real-world systems, built to understand how they work under the hood:
- Redis server β core commands, networking, data persistence
- DNS server β DNS protocol and query resolution
- Unix shell β command parsing, process management, built-ins
- 9+ years of backend development (.NET/C#), currently adopting Rust for systems work
- Domains: fintech, banking, GIS, enterprise software
- Payment provider integrations, service migrations, architecture design, performance optimization
- Microservices, Clean Architecture, REST, gRPC, Kubernetes
