What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build scalable web platforms and ship AI-powered features in production—owning backend APIs and full-stack experiences, optimizing performance, and partnering cross-functionally to deliver reliable outcomes.

I’m a Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years of experience building scalable web applications, backend APIs, cloud-based systems, and AI-powered product features. I focus on clean architecture, secure APIs, and performance optimization while partnering closely with product, design, and engineering to deliver reliable business solutions.

At Delta Electronics (12/2022–Present), I’ve led development of full-stack web applications using React, Next.js, Node.js, and Python, delivering reusable components and scalable internal tools and customer-facing platforms. I integrated AI-powered features in production using OpenAI APIs and LangChain, including intelligent search, automated content generation, document summarization, chatbot-based support, and RAG workflows connected to vector databases.

Previously at Cognizant (06/2018–11/2022), I built and maintained full-stack SaaS applications and shipped AI-assisted automation for campaign content, request classification, report summaries, and workflow automation. Earlier at Intel (01/2014–05/2018), I delivered enterprise web applications and backend microservices, including authentication, authorization, validation, logging, and early AI/document parsing and intelligent search capabilities.
