What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles where I can build AI-enabled, cloud-native full-stack systems, mentor teams, and improve delivery via DevOps and automated testing.

I am a Senior .NET Full Stack Developer with ten years of experience building reliable backend systems, modern frontends, and cloud-native deployments. I specialize in integrating AI capabilities, notably Azure OpenAI Service, to create intelligent features that improve automation and user experience.

I have designed and implemented enterprise solutions including a Global Order Management System (GOMS) with ERP/CRM integrations, secure EHR systems with HIPAA-compliant protections, and financial systems optimized for high-volume processing. I routinely modernize applications, migrating frameworks and adopting .NET 6, .NET MAUI, Blazor Hybrid, and microservices patterns.

My practice emphasizes DevOps and quality: I implement CI/CD pipelines, containerization with Docker and Kubernetes, and infrastructure as code with Terraform. I employ automated testing (NUnit, xUnit, Selenium) and resilient patterns (Polly, Service Bus) to ensure performance and reliability in production.

I collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, mentor developers, and continuously learn emerging technologies such as Semantic Kernel and Azure Cognitive services to deliver pragmatic, maintainable solutions that align with business goals.
