I have worked as a freelance software developer and IT consultant on custom projects ranging from business automation tools to complex, production-ready backend systems. One of my most extensive projects was a large Telegram-based platform for competitive gaming, built around real-time matchmaking, automated result verification and user account management. The system integrated Telegram, WooCommerce, an official game API and Google Cloud Vision, and included payment-related workflows, virtual wallets, referral logic, multilingual support, admin tools, automated background jobs and anti-fraud controls. I designed it with an asynchronous Python architecture, a structured database layer, automated testing, logging, security checks and production deployment in mind. I have also designed a complete lead-research automation platform for a business client whose existing process relied heavily on manual research. The solution was created to automatically discover, validate and organize contact data from public web sources, official registries, social platforms, documents and images. It combined web scraping, API integrations, AI-powered visual extraction, deduplication and data-quality checks with a centralized web dashboard, reporting, exports and CRM integration. The system was designed around measurable business goals: reducing research time, increasing contact coverage and making the workflow scalable to thousands of records. Across my projects, I typically work from requirements and architecture through implementation, testing, deployment and maintenance. I focus on understanding the business process first, then building software that removes manual work, connects existing tools and remains reliable as the project grows.
