What I'm looking for

I’m looking to accelerate product delivery by designing cloud-native, high-performance systems—automation-first, measurable with monitoring, and built for regulatory compliance—while partnering with teams to ship reliably and scale quickly.

I’m a Lead Software Engineer / Systems Architect with senior-level expertise delivering containerized, cloud-native applications. I’ve built fully automated AWS Fargate pipelines, cutting service startup time from 2 minutes to 5 seconds and reducing API latency from 90 seconds to under 100 ms.

I introduce monitoring with Sentry, and I build PCI-compliant deployment automation to improve reliability and reduce downtime in high-volume environments. Along the way, I’ve led teams of 3–7 developers, standardized stacks with Python/uWSGI/Redis/RabbitMQ, and designed performance-focused caching solutions (including for Magento) while keeping systems maintainable and resilient.
