What I'm looking for
I’m a product-focused senior software engineer with 10+ years of experience building scalable platforms across AI, autonomous systems, and developer tools. I specialize in full-stack development spanning web, mobile, and real-time systems, with hands-on expertise in React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, Python, and Go.
Recently, I’ve focused on AI-driven product development, building enterprise AI voice platforms and integrating large language models into production systems. I’ve led complex feature delivery, contributed to developer SDKs, and supported high-reliability systems in regulated environments on AWS and GCP.
I’m passionate about building high-quality products with strong UX, scalable architectures, and real customer impact, and I enjoy working on teams that value ownership, product thinking, and modern engineering practices.
