What I'm looking for
I'm an experienced Software Development Engineer with a proven ability to architect, build, and operate large-scale, highly available distributed systems. Currently, I work at Amazon Web Services, where I lead complex projects from concept to delivery, ensuring operational excellence and fostering team growth. My expertise lies in cross-functional collaboration and process optimization, allowing me to deliver high-quality, scalable solutions that align with business goals.
During my tenure at AWS, I successfully architected and implemented large-scale DNS services, ensuring 24/7 availability for Amazon's public-facing domains. I also led a significant migration project, transitioning Tier-1 services to a managed credential provider, which involved designing security metrics and implementing solutions across diverse architectures. My proactive approach has driven a notable reduction in critical incident tickets, showcasing my commitment to system reliability and performance.
Prior to AWS, I worked at Siemens Digital Industries Software, where I developed end-to-end software solutions as a full-stack developer. I excelled in mentoring junior engineers and addressing customer problem reports, ensuring optimal system performance and customer satisfaction. My strong communication and technical writing skills have been instrumental in collaborating with cross-functional teams, enabling smooth operations and successful project execution.
