Lead full-stack developer specializing in AI-enabled data applications and scalable cloud services.
What I'm looking for
I am a lead full-stack developer with deep experience building AI-driven data applications, multilingual retrieval systems, and internal business platforms.
At Dyson I architected and delivered a multi-agent AI Data Analyst and a multilingual RAG application, deploying secure containerized services on Google Cloud Run that cut manual analysis by over 40 hours per month and accelerated global customer responses.
Previously I delivered seller dashboards, CRM features, and a responsive scan-to-order storefront at Cococart, led interactive dashboard and pricing system work for Lazada, and migrated and modularized services for Visa to improve reporting, cost, and deployment velocity.
I combine strong backend and frontend skills (FastAPI, Node, React), cloud and container expertise (GCP, k8s, Docker), and practical ML/LLM integration experience (LangChain/LangGraph, Vertex AI) to produce robust, production-grade systems that drive measurable business outcomes.
