What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and offers opportunities for growth.

As a Senior Software Engineer with extensive experience in backend development, I have a proven track record of enhancing system performance and optimizing processes. Currently, I work at Akamai, where I successfully migrated services from Azure to Linode, implementing mTLS authentication to secure API requests. My role involves enhancing file processing services to ensure seamless job execution, reflecting my commitment to delivering high-quality software solutions.

Previously, at PureSoftware, I improved API performance by 25% and boosted product recognition by 30% through internationalization efforts. My experience at PeopleStrong Technologies allowed me to mentor a team of developers, enhancing their contributions to agile projects. I am passionate about leveraging my technical expertise in Java, Spring Boot, and cloud technologies to drive impactful results in software development.
