What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles focused on cloud-native systems, scalable APIs, and cross-functional leadership in collaborative, outcome-driven teams.

I am a Staff Software Engineer with 11+ years building and scaling fintech and SaaS products across startup and enterprise environments. I combine backend systems engineering in Go and Java with modern frontend practices using TypeScript and React to deliver end-to-end solutions.

At Amazon I led development of a fully managed integration service, built reusable SDKs, implemented micro-frontend patterns, and automated CI/CD and IaC to accelerate releases and improve reliability. Previously, I architected payroll microservices, secured PII, and optimized batch pipelines at Vendorpass.

I value pragmatic system design, strong cross-functional collaboration, and continuous improvement through testing, observability, and automation to deliver secure, high-performance applications that solve real business problems.
