What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a high-autonomy, async-first role where I can optimize backend performance, ship resilient microservices, and build CI/CD plus observability to remove deployment bottlenecks and accelerate release cycles.

I’m a product-minded Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience designing scalable full-stack architectures, high-throughput backend services, and cloud data pipelines. I’ve focused on optimizing relational database performance (SQL tuning), eliminating processing bottlenecks, and building resilient microservices that hold up under enterprise-scale migrations.

At Oracle, I spearheaded cross-functional architectural reviews and engineered validation services and integration infrastructure to embed scalable automated validation layers into CI/CD pipelines. At Macquarie Group, I refactored core services and Java backend APIs, improved transaction processing speeds by 85%, and added observability with Grafana to streamline diagnosis—while keeping release cycles fast and regression-safe.
