Senior Software Engineer at Amazon building Java and Python services for fulfillment, including Kafka workflows and AWS deployments.

Message

At Amazon, I develop Java Spring Boot fulfillment-status endpoints and Python FastAPI inventory-query services that give operations teams consistent shipment updates and operational availability.

I also built Apache Kafka consumers for asynchronous order-state events and deployed containerized services to AWS. Redis caching and SQL query tuning reduced redundant database reads; the resume reports a 35% improvement in API response time.

At The Walt Disney Company, I developed React interfaces for digital-content browsing and integrated GraphQL queries for personalized content modules. I also built customer reservation forms and supporting Node.js handlers; the resume reports improved API efficiency and faster backend responses.

Earlier, at SkillStorm and Deloitte, I delivered React and Node.js onboarding flows, enterprise reporting dashboards, and frontend features for client products and portals. I hold bachelor's and master's degrees in Computer Science from University of Chicago.
