What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles focused on scalable APIs, reliable CI/CD, and observability in teams valuing performance, security, and cross-functional collaboration.

I am a Senior Full Stack engineer with seven years building production web platforms and microservices for regulated and high-traffic domains. I design resilient APIs and backend services with attention to idempotency, backpressure, and failure isolation, and I build React front ends focused on component reusability and measurable render performance.

I have led cross-functional remote teams through full product lifecycles, refactored monoliths into microservices, and delivered systems handling 100k+ endpoints while improving performance and deploy velocity. I prioritize observability, automated testing, secure API contracts, and CI/CD practices across AWS and Azure to reduce mean time to repair and operational overhead.
