I optimize on-page elements (meta tags, headings, internal linking) and conduct keyword research, competitive analysis, and search intent mapping.

Development Stack: Full-stack proficiency in Python (Django, FastAPI), PHP (Laravel), Vue.js, Next.js, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis. All applications are built with Core Web Vitals, schema markup, and proper rendering strategies for SEO from day one.

JavaScript SEO Specialist: Expert in server-side rendering, dynamic metadata, canonical URLs, and ensuring crawlable content for Next.js and Vue.js applications that Google can effectively index.

Previously worked in pharmaceutical quality assurance — developing precision, documentation discipline, and regulatory compliance mindset that translate to writing testable, maintainable code and structured problem-solving in agile teams.
