I build cloud-native SaaS platforms and enterprise cloud systems.

What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and scale cloud-native products, working across software, infrastructure, DevOps, security, and operations on high-impact engineering initiatives.

I've built cloud platforms at Intel Corporation, contributing from MVP stages through enterprise-scale validation and adoption.

At Apexpymes, I founded and independently engineered a cloud-native SaaS platform for SMB digital transformation. I designed its frontend, backend, cloud infrastructure, DevOps, security architecture, CI/CD, observability, and operations.

I architected an event-driven AWS microservices ecosystem with GraphQL APIs, asynchronous messaging, Vault-based secrets management, WireGuard-secured environments, bastion access, and horizontally scalable infrastructure for 1,000+ active users.

Earlier, I developed CPU simulation and validation software, automated frameworks running more than 1,000 regression tests, and healthcare-focused frontend, backend, and IoT solutions.
