The project is a high-performance, interactive Curriculum Vitae built on a lightweight tech stack (HTMX and TailwindCSS), deliberately avoiding heavy JavaScript frameworks.

It delivers a modern, print-optimized experience featuring expandable sections and multi-language support

Over the past years I’ve worked across banking, consulting, and technology environments. My work spans backend engineering, AI-assisted automation, systems analysis, integration, cybersecurity practices, and incident/change management. My preference is to work with modern backend stacks (Python/FastAPI/Django, Go, SQL databases) and automation/AI.

Interesting solution and project. Will follow to see future improvements

I'm currently developing qApp, a lightweight queue and appointment reservation management system for businesses (banks, clinics, shops, etc.). The idea is to let customers join a queue through a simple online form and receive updates via SMS — no apps, no complicated logins.
