Tech Lead at Marketplacer
About Me I am a Senior Software Engineer and Tech Lead with over six years of experience scaling from a hands-on individual contributor to a technical leader. I specialize in bridging the gap between deep technical execution and people management. I hold a BS in Computer Engineering (Cum Laude) from UP Diliman , and my core philosophy is that great, scalable software starts with empowered, well-mentored people. I currently serve as a Technical Lead, where I manage a team of engineers, balance project management with technical skills, and design complex software solutions. My Experience My background is heavily focused on full-stack web development, system architecture, and talent calibration: Architecture & Development: I build and deliver scalable full-stack applications. I have deep hands-on experience designing Microservices Architecture , Event Sourcing , and CQRS. My technical stack includes Ruby on Rails , React , NodeJS , and Angular , alongside cloud integrations utilizing AWS Services and Docker-ECS. Engineering Leadership: As a Tech Lead, I guide teams to exceed goals, help with code planning and code reviews, and look ahead to unblock potential challenges. Talent Calibration & Hiring: In a previous role, I served as a Hiring Lead for software engineers. I organized hiring events, processed technical applications and interviews, and partnered with stakeholders to define recruiting strategies. I know what top-tier engineering talent looks like and how to onboard them to beat the learning curve.
