I'm Andrii Zelenets - a Full-Stack Software Engineer with 13 years of production experience across fintech, e-commerce, SaaS, logistics, EdTech, and defense tech.
M.Eng. in Control & Automation (with Honours). AWS Solutions Architect Professional. OSCP-certified. I build things that ship, scale, and stay up.
I am eager to leverage my specialized skills to deliver high‑quality technical solutions that propel your business forward.
I design and deliver backend-heavy, full-stack systems: high-throughput APIs, event-driven microservices, real-time IoT pipelines, payment and compliance integrations, and the React frontends that tie them together.

- Startups that need a senior engineer who can own the architecture, not just execute tickets.
- Scaleups dealing with legacy debt, integration complexity, or performance ceilings.
- Teams that need a reliable senior contributor without the overhead of a full hire.
I integrate fast - remote or on-site - and I align technical decisions with business goals before writing a line of code.
