Über Vasileios

I’m a Senior Software Engineer and Software Architect with more than 12 years of experience building reliable, scalable, and well-structured backend systems and full-stack applications for startups, product teams, and digital agencies.

My work spans FinTech, e-commerce, health & fitness, solar energy, real estate, DevOps platforms (RPort), and restaurant tech. Across all projects, my focus is the same: clean architecture, solid engineering, clear communication, and delivering features that work in production from day one.

Although I have experience leading the architecture of full SaaS products, I remain fully hands-on. I enjoy writing high-quality code, designing robust APIs, improving performance, and helping teams build products faster and with confidence. Clients appreciate that I combine strong technical depth with an understanding of business goals, making collaboration smooth and efficient.

Technical strengths:
  • Backend development & architecture (Laravel, Node.js, Go)
  • API design, scalability, refactoring, performance optimization
  • Databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis)
  • Frontend with Vue / Nuxt / Inertia.js
  • Microservices, deployments, CI/CD, testing, cloud environments

I’m easy to work with, dependable, and used to joining a project and adding value immediately, whether it’s implementing new features, improving a codebase, stabilizing a system, or shaping the technical direction of a product.

Whether you need support on an existing project or want help building something new, I’d be happy to discuss how I can contribute.

    At Threecolts, I worked as a Senior Software Engineer across two major SaaS products, Tactical Arbitrage (flagship product) and Dataspark, while also architecting and building the company’s new unified backend for all browser extensions.

    Dataspark (Product Ownership):
    • Rebuilt the entire Dataspark client dashboard from scratch using Laravel, Inertia.js, Vue 3, and Tailwind.
    • Developed a custom cross-browser extension (Chrome + Firefox) tightly integrated with the new dashboard.
    • Added structured automated tests (unit + feature), introducing testing practices that did not previously exist in the product.

    Tactical Arbitrage (Flagship Product – v2 Release):
    • Contributed to Tactical Arbitrage v2, a major product overhaul including a full UI redesign and backend improvements.
    • Optimized high-load backend processes: improved complex queries, reduced algorithmic complexity (Big O), refactored core logic using SOLID principles.
    • Helped stabilize legacy components and modernize core data flows.

    Unified Extension Backend (Independent Project – Architect & Builder):
    • Designed and built from scratch a centralized backend platform for all company browser extensions (Dataspark, ScoutX, and Tactical Arbitrage integrations).
    • Implemented the entire API using Laravel 12, including a modular architecture, JWT authentication, rate limiting, permissions, and secure multi-product data routing.
    • Successfully migrated all legacy extension backends into this unified platform, improving maintainability, monitoring, and scalability.
    • This backend became the new single source of truth for all extension-related functionality inside Threecolts.

    Across All Products:
    • Introduced modern engineering practices: testing culture, cleaner architecture, performance profiling.
    • Collaborated with product, design, and management to accelerate delivery and reduce operational issues.
    • Upgraded multiple legacy systems into stable, scalable, and modern codebases.
