Field Notes № 14Hội AnVietnam · 15°NThe intersection of innovation and adventure.
Hi there 👋🏻, I'm Megholova.
I'm a software engineer with more than a decade of experience building products across the stack. From frontend applications and backend services to cloud infrastructure and modern AI systems, I enjoy turning ideas into reliable software that people actually use.
Over the years, I've worked with startups, experienced an acquisition, contributed to products serving millions of users, and helped build systems from the ground up. Today, my toolkit includes React, TypeScript, Go, PostgreSQL, AWS, and an increasing focus on AI-powered applications.
Outside of work, I'm a relentless wanderer driven by an insatiable curiosity to discover the world beyond screens. Whether it's a new technology, a new place, or a new perspective, I'm always looking for what lies just beyond the familiar.
