What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative engineering role where I can build AI-enabled developer tools, improve API reliability, and grow in scalable backend and DevOps practices.

I am a software developer with hands-on experience building AI-powered developer tools and ensuring API reliability through rigorous testing and validation.

During internships and early professional roles I implemented end-to-end testing practices, reduced manual review overhead with AI integrations, and improved deployment stability by catching critical bugs before release.

I prioritize scalable, maintainable architectures and clear team communication, and I enjoy creating developer-facing products that boost productivity and streamline workflows.
