Browser Extension Developer Tool SaaS

BugSnap

Architected a full-stack SaaS platform designed to eliminate the communication gap between QA and Engineering. By automating the capture of deep technical context—including network waterfalls, console logs, and local storage state—it solves the 'works on my machine' problem. This tool reduces bug reproduction cycles by 90%, transforming vague tickets into actionable, fixable reports instantly.

  • 10× faster bug reporting with full reproduction context
  • DevTools-inspired review UI with synchronized timeline
  • E2E test code generation (Playwright, Cypress, Puppeteer)
  • Integrations: Jira, Slack, Linear, GitHub

Chrome Extension Privacy-First Open Source

AllPicSaver X

A privacy-centric media extraction engine built for the modern web. Unlike generic downloaders, it utilizes a custom heuristic algorithm to traverse complex DOM structures (including Shadow DOM) to identify high-resolution assets. The architecture ensures zero data leakage by performing all processing, filtering, and ZIP packaging entirely within the client's browser—no external servers involved.

  • One-click scanning with automatic hi-res variant detection
  • Optimized for Unsplash, Imgur, Flickr, Pinterest, Reddit & more
  • Batch downloads with ZIP packaging & format conversion
  • 100% local—no data collection, no external servers

Newsletter Curation Community

Talk::Overflow

A high-signal technical publication for engineering leaders and senior individual contributors. I curate and distill hundreds of hours of conference talks into actionable insights, focusing on the architectural patterns that matter—Distributed Systems, Scalability, and Modern Frontend Engineering. It cuts through the noise to provide a weekly injection of pure engineering context.

  • 3–5 curated talks weekly with timestamps & key takeaways
  • Covers KubeCon, Strange Loop, QCon, JSConf, RustConf & more
  • Deep dives on landmark talks that shaped the industry
  • Perfect for engineering book clubs and team onboarding

The Builder Mindset

In a world of commoditized coding, the true value lies in orchestration. I bring a Principal Engineer's discipline to product creation, ensuring every architectural decision directly drives business value.

My approach is rooted in strategic execution. Whether it's orchestrating a micro-frontend migration to unify enterprise product lines or designing event-driven architectures (NATS/SSE) for real-time scale, every technical decision is mapped to a business outcome.

I believe in shipping excellence. From defining the 'Buy vs. Build' strategy to optimizing CI/CD pipelines for velocity, I remove friction to ensure ideas reach production faster.
