Technical Expertise and Leadership

With over a decade of experience as a software developer, I specialize in web development and currently serve as an Engineering Manager of a 50-person team spread across multiple sub-teams. In this role, I’ve developed a strong ability to build and lead functional teams that consistently achieve their objectives and goals, focusing on a balance between quality, quantity, and performance. Additionally, I’ve operated as DevOps/Head of DevOps, playing a crucial role in integrating development and operations. This has involved creating a robust and scalable infrastructure that has led to greater system stability and reliability. My technical expertise spans multiple programming languages, including JavaScript, Python, Go, and PHP, with proficiency in front-end frameworks like React and Angular, and back-end frameworks such as Symfony and NestJS.

Educational Background and Continuous Learning

I hold a degree in Computer Science from the Polytechnic University of Tirana and a degree in Project Management from the University of Barcelona. This academic foundation, combined with extensive industry experience, provides me with a strong analytical mindset and a comprehensive understanding of both the technical and managerial aspects of software development. I thrive on solving complex problems and enjoy collaborating with my team to find the most effective solutions.

Personal Interests and Work Preferences

When I’m not immersed in coding or managing projects, I enjoy hiking, savoring a good cup of coffee, and exploring diverse cuisines. Reading is another passion of mine, particularly on weekends. I value collaboration and prefer hands-on working over excessive discussion—action drives progress. I also tend to make decisions promptly, even if they aren’t perfect, because having something tangible to evaluate and improve is far better than having nothing at all. If I don’t respond during working hours, it’s because I’ve set up a focused working mode on my phone. Notifications, except those from our work tools, are silenced, and only family members can break through this mode in case of an emergency or if something truly requires my attention. My most productive work hours are usually before meetings start at 9:45 AM, so I focus on critical tasks during this time. If you need to reach out, an email with a brief overview is appreciated. For quick discussions, a call is preferred, and for in-depth business ideas, face-to-face interaction is the most effective.

Contact Information

Feel free to reach out via my personal email at [email protected] or through my website’s contact email at [email protected]. Whether it’s for a quick chat, a detailed discussion, or just to share ideas, I’m always open to connecting.
