What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a senior backend role where I can own end-to-end microservices and production AI systems—especially RAG/NLP pipelines—while building high-availability architectures that cut operational costs and move teams faster to market.

I’m a performance-driven Senior Backend Developer with over 8 years of experience engineering scalable backend systems, robust microservices, and enterprise-grade AI architectures. I focus on Python-based services built for reliability, from microservices lifecycle ownership to productionizing Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines.

Most recently at Bydrec, I designed, built, and operated ON24’s AI content intelligence platform—8 production microservices that transform webinar content into AI-generated insights, media assets, and editorial content. I engineered an ML pipeline for key moment extraction (change-point detection, semantic embeddings, and LLM scoring), implemented NLP clustering for smart representative questions, and standardized a multi-provider LLM fallback chain across providers.

I’ve also led backend optimization and platform expansion across roles at Launch Mobility and Ruedata, including cutting query response times by 60% in high-concurrency environments and migrating legacy systems to greenfield Flask/SQLAlchemy APIs. I’m especially proud of building high-availability architectures (including async task execution) and production-grade data processing that reduce operational cost and accelerate time-to-market.
