What I'm looking for

I’m aiming to apply AI and cloud engineering skills to drive innovative, high-performance solutions—building scalable systems, improving reliability and efficiency, and mentoring teams to ship faster with strong engineering practices.

I’m a Senior Software Engineer with extensive AI, cloud, and web technology expertise, focused on building high-performance systems that scale reliably. I lead and deliver end-to-end engineering work, from architecture through backend services and operational improvements.

At Google, I spearheaded the YouTube Review Tool (YuRT), an AI-powered content moderation system that improved review efficiency by 50%. I also architected and implemented GCP-based, cloud-native infrastructure with Terraform, reducing service downtime by 40% and improving system responsiveness by 25%.

Before that, at Twilio, I led the ECHO frontend team through a migration from Backbone/Marionette to React/Redux, improving user experience and performance by 25%. I directed infrastructure migration to AWS using CloudFront and Terraform (cutting costs by 40%), and built serverless solutions with AWS Lambda and Google Cloud Functions to reduce overhead and improve deployment speed with CI/CD.

I’m motivated by outcomes—measurable reliability, faster delivery, and smarter automation. I also mentor engineers and guide design discussions, and I enjoy integrating machine learning into real workflows, like TensorFlow-based sentiment analysis and chatbots, to drive engagement and operational impact.
