Professional context

Where it fits

Across product and consulting work, I have built backend APIs in both C#/.NET and TypeScript/Node.js environments. The work usually combines contract design, validation, business workflows, persistence, integration boundaries, and operations-minded delivery rather than treating the API surface as a thin wrapper over data.
