What I'm looking for

I want to build production-grade backend platforms—scalable APIs, secure auth, payments, and AI orchestration—using strong CI/CD and monitoring. I’m looking for teams that value reliability, fast iteration, and clear ownership.

I’m a senior backend engineer with production experience building scalable API services, AI orchestration layers, and DevOps infrastructure for SaaS, fintech, and edtech products. My core focus is shipping well-tested, revenue-ready systems from ambiguous requirements.

At Benmore Technologies, I own end-to-end backend development across multiple concurrent production products—scoping requirements, designing APIs and data models, writing production code, and managing CI/CD pipelines through merged PRs. I integrate Clerk authentication (JWT validation, RBAC, refresh flows), implement Stripe payment lifecycles (checkout, webhook signature verification, customer portal), and architect secure, test-backed backend features.

I also built and shipped a full AI orchestration system with production-grade security: GPT-4 context injection, usage quotas, and multi-model coordination, alongside rate limiting, token rotation, input sanitization, and container-level isolation. I’m comfortable translating real-world constraints into measurable reliability—backed by monitoring and strong testing practices.

Earlier, I built a complete AI orchestration layer in FastAPI for my final year project, including 80+ REST endpoints, Redis-backed quota enforcement, and effectiveness measurement with SciPy. I’ve also co-founded and delivered a multi-role campus marketplace on Azure, and completed Digital Risk consulting intern work at EY across change and access management for financial services clients.
