As a Full-Stack Software Engineer with over 6 years of experience, I have served as both Senior Software Engineer II and Tech Lead, with a background in product management/business and experience as a Scrum Master. I excel in both startups and mid-level companies, with expertise in FinTech—interacting with banks, financial institutions, and blockchain—and MarTech, focusing on AI. My role has often centered on data engineering and the scaling of APIs and data pipelines. I am eager to explore new domains.

My career has predominantly been remote, working with diverse teams. I adapt easily to remote work and cross-cultural collaboration.

In startups, my greatest contribution comes after the MVP stage, where I focus on reducing technical debt and chaos to facilitate scaling. In mid-level companies, my strengths lie in rapidly delivering features, scaling, improving developer experience and processes, and leading engineering teams, ensuring effective communication with business stakeholders.

Per seat how? My Github repo has 10 members. Are each of them a seat or just the person who created an account on Ellipsis?
