What I'm looking for

I’m looking for roles at the intersection of backend engineering and applied AI/agentic systems—building production-grade microservices, integrating RAG/MLOps, and shipping fast with strong engineering fundamentals.

I’m a Backend Engineer with 3.5+ years building scalable backend systems using Python and Go across Cisco, Mitsogo, Outlier, and Our World Energy (OWE). I focus on microservices, REST/gRPC APIs, and real-time communication platforms, while pairing that foundation with applied AI/ML and agentic systems.

In my current role at OWE, I designed and developed scalable real-time chat and calling systems by integrating Twilio APIs and building RESTful and gRPC-based backend services in Go. I also shipped reusable Go APIs for secure AWS S3 file workflows, built a Go-based editor service for real-time Confluence updates, and strengthened backend architecture for finance services with secure integration across internal systems.

My projects reflect how I like to work: end-to-end, production-minded, and AI-accelerated. On EstateVault, I architected a 9-service microservices AI platform with RAG and vector search (pgvector), provider-agnostic AI service abstractions, encrypted media handling, and Kubernetes-based CI/CD with canary deployment. On AlgoTrade Sentinel, I built a 10-phase MLOps pipeline with MLflow, drift monitoring, automated retraining triggers, and FastAPI inference endpoints.

Backend Engineer (Python)

Cisco

Oct 2022 - Oct 2023 (1 year)

Improved CI/CD performance by parallelizing environment variable execution in Jenkins, Git, and Docker, reducing build time to one-third and accelerating deployment cycles. Reduced video alert false positives by 37% using TimescaleDB and Elasticsearch with Grafana visualization, and built a Python CRUD + rate limiting service achieving 1,000+ req/min throughput with AWS Athena and TimescaleDB.
