What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a Senior engineering role building scalable serverless and full‑stack systems where I can drive product impact, improve reliability, and mentor engineers at a data-driven company.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with deep experience building scalable, user-focused systems using React, TypeScript, Node.js, and AWS. I design and implement full‑stack features that measurably increase engagement and satisfaction.

At my current role I built a two‑way messaging platform that boosted user engagement by 40% and led a migration from a monolith to serverless microservices that cut infrastructure costs by 35%.

I develop resilient microservices and observability practices—achieving 99.99% uptime, reducing latency by 30%, and implementing testing frameworks that drove 90% coverage and far fewer production bugs.

Previously at Amazon I worked on Prime Video backend systems, improved playback quality with an adaptive bitrate algorithm, built a recommendation engine that increased engagement, and scaled data pipelines to process millions of records per day.
