What I'm looking for
With over 10 years of experience as a Senior Software Engineer, I specialize in full-stack development, focusing on scalable and efficient backend systems. My journey has been marked by a commitment to delivering high-performance solutions and mentoring junior developers, fostering collaboration to ensure successful project outcomes.
At Abridge, I have developed APIs and data pipelines using Python, Go, and FastAPI, significantly enhancing clinical note generation and provider workflow tools. My leadership in integrating custom NLP and speech models has improved medical concept extraction accuracy, while my advocacy for voice SDKs has enabled seamless integration into third-party systems. I thrive on tackling complex technical challenges and guiding teams through critical design discussions.
Previously at Walmart, I contributed to internal frameworks and directed core platform initiatives that supported over 100 million users globally. My work in building dynamic frontends and optimizing backend services has consistently improved user experience and system performance. I am passionate about mentoring and ensuring best practices in software development, always striving for excellence in every project I undertake.
