Full-Stack Background

Before focusing on Minecraft Bedrock development, I worked on production web systems including B2B SaaS products, e-commerce platforms, internal tools, admin panels, and UI kits.
Primary stack: TypeScript, JavaScript, React, Redux, Node.js, Express, NestJS, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, Linux, Playwright, Cypress, CI/CD
This background helps with architecture, maintainability, tooling, build automation, debugging, and collaboration on larger Bedrock projects.

Availability

Based in Tbilisi, Georgia (UTC+4). Open to remote paid contract work: hourly, milestone-based, or project-based. Available for Bedrock add-on development, maintenance, compatibility updates, and urgent paid prototypes.
