Experienced .NET/Azure software engineer building scalable cloud-native APIs.
What I'm looking for
I am a Software Engineer with 5+ years designing, building, and operating enterprise and SaaS applications on the Microsoft stack, focused on secure, scalable RESTful APIs using C# and ASP.NET Core.
I specialize in cloud-native solutions on Microsoft Azure, including Azure Functions, Service Bus, App Service, Azure SQL/Cosmos DB, and CI/CD in Azure DevOps. I take end-to-end ownership from design through production operations.
My achievements include architecting an Excel import/export engine with Azure Functions, engineering a high-throughput bulk document upload handling 300+ simultaneous files, and leading DocuSign server-to-server OAuth 2.0 JWT integrations with secure secret management in Azure Key Vault.
I modernize legacy systems, extract domain modules into independent repositories with dedicated CI/CD, and improve observability and incident response using Application Insights—delivering maintainable, testable, and scalable solutions in cross-functional Agile teams.
