What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build secure, reliable healthcare workflows where I can own backend APIs, React experiences, data models, integrations, and quality practices that help care teams deliver high-touch services.

I'm building secure patient and provider workflows at ScienceSoft through FastAPI GraphQL and REST APIs, React/TypeScript interfaces, OAuth/OIDC authentication, audit logging, and resilient FHIR-related integrations. I also designed SQLAlchemy/Alembic migration paths and comprehensive backend and frontend test coverage to support safe releases.

Previously at Cohere Health and Baycare Health Systems, I delivered clinical forms, healthcare record-review tooling, search features, event-driven workflows, and accessible care-team interfaces. I focus on making high-touch healthcare services more reliable through permission-aware systems, resilient integrations, observability, and practical testing.
