Junior Full-Stack / Backend Developer
abnoc.dev · github.com/AbnocChinwads · LinkedIn
Self-taught full-stack developer focused on building and deploying production-style web applications. I work primarily with Next.js, Node.js, and PostgreSQL, alongside Docker-based deployment and self-hosted infrastructure. I enjoy building end-to-end systems that combine frontend interfaces, backend APIs, and real deployment environments, with a strong focus on learning through practical implementation and iterative development. Currently seeking junior full-stack or backend developer roles where I can contribute to real-world systems and continue developing production engineering skills.
