What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, allowing me to leverage AI to solve impactful problems.

I'm a Senior Software Engineer with a decade of experience building enterprise-level applications, mainly across the healthcare, cybersecurity, and SaaS industries. My background is strongly rooted in full-stack development-I'm fluent in modern front-end frameworks like React, Angular, and Next.js, and on the backend I work primarily with Python (especially FastAPI, Django, Flask) and .NET Core. I also have solid experience with microservices architecture and DevOps practices across AWS, Azure, and GCP.

Throughout my career, I’ve led and delivered major initiatives for companies like Bain & Company, Canva, and Uber. At Bain, I drove the full-stack development of a scalable client onboarding platform, modernized legacy tools using FastAPI and React, and cut operational costs with real-time PDF generation and scalable job orchestration using Redis and Celery. At Canva, I designed internal ML tools that helped product teams iterate faster, and at Uber, I led a global team in building multi-region microservices that improved performance by 30 percent.

I enjoy solving high-impact problems with clean, scalable architecture, and I’m especially drawn to teams working on cutting-edge technologies - whether that’s in AI/ML integration, performance optimization, or cloud-native development. I’m based in Davis, California, and hold a Computer Science degree from Singapore Institute of Technology.
