What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can lead cloud-native architecture and delivery, set engineering standards, and build real-time distributed systems at scale. I also want to keep advancing automated testing and AI-assisted workflows to improve quality and velocity.

I’m a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with 10+ years owning the architecture and delivery of cloud-native, distributed platforms across consumer tech, telecom, financial services, and healthcare. I take real-time services from system design through production at scale, serving tens of millions of users.

At DISCORD (Remote), I’ve owned end-to-end real-time messaging, notification, and engagement systems for 50M+ monthly active users. I set technical direction through RFC authoring, architecture reviews, and API/CI/CD standards—while re-engineering caching and database access patterns to cut p95 latency from 190ms to 110ms (42%) and lowering annual infrastructure costs by 25%.

I also drive resilient, high-throughput platforms—architecting cloud-native microservices on Azure and migrating communication to event-driven patterns on Azure Service Bus and Event Grid. I’ve led CI/CD improvements, observability standards, and org-wide automated testing adoption (Jest, Cypress), and I’m increasingly integrating AI-assisted workflows (Claude, Cursor) into how teams ship while mentoring engineers to raise quality and velocity.
