What I'm looking for

I am seeking backend or cloud-focused roles where I can build scalable, reliable distributed systems, mentor engineers, and grow in systems architecture.

I am a software engineer focused on distributed systems and scalable cloud architecture, with hands-on experience building high-throughput microservices and event-driven systems. I have a strong foundation in Node.js and TypeScript, and I am actively expanding my Golang skills.

In recent roles I designed and implemented a six-service microservice ecosystem using gRPC and Protocol Buffers, engineered fault-tolerant event-driven pipelines with BullMQ, and optimized databases and caching layers to significantly reduce latency and improve throughput. I also led code reviews and mentored junior engineers to raise engineering standards.

I bring practical experience with cloud and container platforms (AWS, Kubernetes, Docker), observability tooling, and CI/CD practices, and I hold professional certifications in backend engineering and deep learning. I seek opportunities to deliver reliable, data-intensive systems at scale and to continue growing as a systems-focused backend engineer.
