I run production infrastructure and private AI systems on servers you own — Proxmox, Docker, Kubernetes, and self-hosted LLMs that keep your data out of the cloud.
If your server is down or your platform needs deploying, I've got you.
Day to day I run real production environments — not lab setups: Proxmox clusters, 15+ virtual machines, a K3s/Rancher Kubernetes cluster, Docker deployments, and CI/CD pipelines across multiple products. I work comfortably from the hypervisor up to the reverse proxy.
What I do:
- Server troubleshooting & recovery — Proxmox, Linux, VPS. Down server back online, root cause found, not just patched.
- Docker deployment — Docker Compose, Nginx/Traefik, SSL, CI/CD with GitHub Actions.
- Kubernetes — K3s + Rancher in production: Traefik ingress, cert-manager, persistent storage, tested backups.
- Migrations — provider-to-provider, VPS consolidation, VMware → Proxmox.
- VPN & networking — WireGuard, NetBird, OpenVPN, site-to-site setups.
- Self-hosted apps — Nextcloud, n8n, Odoo and more, deployed securely and built to last.
- Monitoring — Prometheus + Grafana + Alertmanager for production visibility.
- AI/LLM infrastructure — Ollama, self-hosted models, GPU setup, n8n AI agents and workflow automation.
- Windows Server & Microsoft 365 — Active Directory, Entra ID, tenant administration.
Recent client work: full production stack for a Luxembourg medical practice (Nextcloud, n8n, DocuSeal, self-hosted LLM — patient data never leaves their server), and a two-site Proxmox + Proxmox Backup Server deployment for a US client.
How I work: I treat your server like production — because it is. I verify the traffic path and check logs before changing anything, I document what I do so you understand it, and I never make silent changes that could break access. You get a fix that holds, plus a clear explanation of what happened and why.
For clients who want peace of mind, I offer monthly server management — proactive monitoring, security updates, backups, and priority response, so problems get caught before they become outages.
Tools: Proxmox VE, Proxmox Backup Server, Docker, Docker Compose, K3s, Rancher, Nginx, Traefik, GitHub Actions, Linux (Ubuntu/Debian), WireGuard, NetBird, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, Prometheus, Grafana, n8n, Ollama, Let's Encrypt, fail2ban, systemd.

Hello, I am Oleksandr!
🔥I build AI-integrated SaaS and mobile apps for fintech, travel & hospitality, real estate and healthcare startups and established businesses. Using React Native, Python, and React, I deliver secure MVPs from concept to launch. Backed by a 65+ dev team, I ensure scalable, compliant solutions with predictable delivery and rapid iteration.🔥
🚀 I also lead a web development team, Join.To.IT from Kyiv, Ukraine, as co-founder and CEO. We have multiple Laravel developers (Senior PHP and Custom PHP MySQL), Python (Django), and JavaScript (React, Vue, React Native) developers. If your project needs a dedicated mobile app developer, we can staff that role quickly, while I stay involved as a full stack developer to keep architecture, delivery, and communication aligned. When the UI scope grows, a senior web developer can join the project while I remain the full stack developer responsible for end-to-end quality.🚀
I’m an experienced Laravel engineer, React engineer, Vue engineer, and React Native engineer with 14 years of production experience. As a full stack developer I can build backend APIs, admin panels, dashboards, and customer-facing apps, and as a web developer I pay attention to UI details that improve conversion and retention. I’ve completed a wide range of successful projects, from MVPs to large systems with long-term maintenance and continuous improvements.
My skills:
React
React Native
Software Architecture & Design
Laravel
Python
Full-Stack Development
API Development
JavaScript
PHP
Web Application Development
Node.js
AWS Development
MySQL
Mobile App Development
Django
WordPress
HTML5
Tailwind CSS
Web Design
API Integration
Stack of technologies we use:
✅ HTML/CSS, Bootstrap, Tailwind
✅ JavaScript (React, Vue, Node.js, Express, AdonisJS, Nuxt)
✅ React Native for cross-platform mobile delivery
✅ API integrations (Stripe, PayPal, Twilio, TextMagic, Xero, DocuSign, Google Maps, Meta APIs, and more)
✅ API development (Laravel, Node/Express, Firebase, Python/Django, Go, REST, GraphQL)
✅ PWA (Progressive Web App)
✅ Databases: MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, DynamoDB, Elasticsearch
✅ Infrastructure: AWS, DigitalOcean, Firebase, Supabase
✅ DevOps and administration: LAMP, CentOS, Ubuntu
As a full stack developer, I connect the front end, back end, and infrastructure so releases are smooth. When the scope includes native-like UX, I can collaborate with a mobile app developer without slowing down the API roadmap, and a web developer can refine UI flows while we keep the backend stable.
You can hire me as a full stack developer for full ownership, or extend the team and keep me as the full stack developer leading architecture and delivery. If timelines are tight, add a mobile app developer to parallelize mobile features, and add a web developer to accelerate dashboards and front-end work.
Our team has already worked in such industries as:
✅ Marketplace
✅ E-commerce
✅ Travel and Hospitality
✅ Custom ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning)
✅ ChatGPT integration (LLM model in your website front end)
✅ Automotive (car inspection, automotive ERP, car sharing, rental, selling)
✅ Social media (Tinder-like networks, short video platforms, communities)
✅ Sales (CRM systems for sales teams, retail, hospitals, sales departments)
✅ Sport (gym management systems, trainer platforms, fitness apps, club portals)
✅ Legal (document automation, AI-assisted legal processing)
✅ Healthcare (clinic management, booking, mental health software)
✅ Education (LMS, automated training, coaching marketplaces)
✅ Finance (fintech platforms, investment platforms, bank API integrations, calculators)
✅ Manufacturing (shop floor management and automation)
✅ Human resources (HRM systems)
✅ Digital marketing (Meta, Facebook/Instagram, TikTok, Google APIs, analytics)
In our work history you’ll find successful products built with Laravel, PHP, JavaScript, MySQL, React, Vue, WordPress development, Web Development, Full Stack development and React Native, plus multiple systems built with Python (Django, Flask, FastAPI). I also use LLM capabilities and AI APIs (including OpenAI integrations) when they genuinely improve the product experience.
We have 65 senior developers across PHP, JavaScript, MySQL, Python, Go, and Node.js. As a full stack developer, I can jump into an existing codebase, stabilize releases, fix bottlenecks, and plan the next iterations.
Don't hesitate to get in touch with me for further details and fruitful work.

Available to start immediately. I build and fix real .NET & C# software. Click on Invite button to start conversation
I’m a .NET Developer and C# Developer with 13+ years of experience working on production systems built in C#/.NET.
Most of my work is focused on helping teams make their existing software more stable, scalable, and easier to evolve without risky rewrites.
I’ve worked in long-term roles as a C#/.NET developer, often joining projects where the codebase already exists and needs structure, performance improvements, or careful modernization.
🧠 How clients usually come to me
Very often, teams reach out to me as a .NET developer when they already have a product written in C#/.NET, but something isn’t working as it should.
Changes are slow, bugs appear in unexpected places, or the architecture feels fragile. In those cases, I step in as a C# .NET Developer who understands how real systems grow over time and how to improve them without breaking production.
Depending on the scope, I work either as a backend developer focused on logic and performance, or as a .NET Full Stack Developer when both backend and UI decisions need to be handled together.
⚙️ What I do in real projects
Day to day, my work as a .NET Developer is very practical.
I write and refactor C#/.NET, clean up .NET architecture, improve async flows, and make sure the application behaves predictably in production.
In many projects, this naturally turns into .NET full stack work handling backend services, APIs, and UI integration where I step in as a .NET Full Stack Developer.
When teams want a modern .NET Full Stack direction without splitting the codebase, I build new features or full applications using .NET MAUI/WPF/WinForms. I’ve worked with .NET apps both for new products and for migrations from older stacks like, where stability matters more than speed.
🧩 Types of systems I’ve worked on
Over the years, I’ve worked as a .NET Developer, across different environments:
💻 Desktop software written in C#/.NET
🌐 Web platforms where I worked as a full stack developer on .NET backends
📱 Cross-platform apps built with .NET MAUI (Windows & Android only)
🧱 Larger products that required a true full stack developer approach
🔗 Mixed systems where .NET AI integration was part of the stack
🎮 Internal tools and simulators developed with C#
🤖 Careful use of .NET AI where it actually added value
In several projects, I worked in React .NET setups, connecting React frontends to .NET backends while keeping responsibilities clean and clear.
🛠️ How I work with teams and data
I’m comfortable joining existing teams and reading unfamiliar C#/.NET codebases. I focus first on understanding why decisions were made, then improving things step by step.
I regularly work with SQL server, collaborate with Azure Data Engineer roles, and support data-heavy systems where performance & reliability are critical.
This mix of responsibilities often places me in a .NET Full Stack Developer role even when the original task starts as pure backend work.
🛠️ Tech Stack
.NET Framework, .NET 6 / 8 / 9 / 10
App Development - WPF, WinForms, WinUI, Blazor, .NET MAUI, MVVM
Concurrency & Performance - Multithreading, async/await, Task Parallel Library
Hardware & Protocols - Serial, Bluetooth LE, TCP/IP, UDP, RS232, RS422
Architecture & Quality - Clean Architecture, OOP, refactoring, performance tuning
Security & Testing - Unit testing, Polaris, Coverity, SAST, DAST, threat modeling
Data & Cloud - SQL Server, Azure
Tooling - Visual Studio, VS Code, GitHub, GitHub Actions, Docker
✅ Why clients choose to work with me
✨ I think like a long-term .NET Developer, not a short-term task runner
✨ I write C# code that other C# developers can actually maintain
✨ I’m comfortable owning systems as a .NET Full Stack Developer
✨ I communicate clearly and avoid surprises
✨ I leave .NET full stack codebases cleaner and more stable than I found them
