What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can architect cloud-native systems in healthcare, lead cross-functional teams, work with ML and real-time data, and advance platform reliability and security.

I am a Staff Software Engineer with 10+ years building secure, scalable applications across GCP and AWS, specializing in healthcare systems and real-time data pipelines. I architect distributed microservices, integrate generative AI models, and lead cross-organizational initiatives to improve interoperability and reduce ingestion latency.

I have delivered measurable impacts—reducing ingestion latency by 40%, improving system throughput by 30%, and automating clinical triage with >92% precision—while mentoring engineers, promoting IaC and best practices, and maintaining site reliability in production environments.
