What I'm looking for

I seek senior backend or platform roles building scalable, observable distributed systems, collaborating with ML and platform teams, and focusing on cloud-native architectures, performance optimization, and reliable production deployments.

I am a senior backend engineer with over eight years designing distributed backend systems and high-scale cloud infrastructure across SaaS and enterprise platforms. I specialize in Go, Python, microservices architecture, and AWS-native distributed systems with production deployments handling millions of API transactions and large-scale data pipelines.
At Tecton I led backend development for a real-time feature store, architecting ingestion pipelines with Go, Kafka, and Python to process 50M+ feature updates daily while maintaining sub-100ms retrieval latency and cutting compute overhead by 35%.
Previously I built high-throughput distributed APIs and data pipelines for enterprise platforms, reducing latencies by up to 45%, increasing pipeline throughput by 2–2.5×, and improving availability through containerization, Kubernetes orchestration, and observability practices.
I partner closely with ML and cross-functional teams to integrate model inference pipelines, improve deployment velocity, and deliver resilient, scalable systems. I hold advanced cloud and ML certifications and prioritize observability, automated CI/CD, and robust security in production environments.
