What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles focused on high-performance front-end and full-stack systems, strong testing/CI/CD, collaborative teams, and opportunities to lead technical vision and drive scalable, secure solutions.

I am a senior software engineer with 8+ years building front-end-heavy and full-stack applications across Government (DoD), Telecom, and Consulting, focused on performance, security, and scalable architectures.

I specialize in React, Next.js, and TypeScript for high‑fps, drag‑and‑drop interfaces and have backend experience with Java, Spring Boot, and PostgreSQL, designing pipelines that processed 600M+ records and reduced infrastructure costs.

I lead cross-functional teams, implemented comprehensive testing and CI/CD practices to achieve 95% coverage and one‑click rollbacks, and drove technical visions that converted prototypes into multi‑year contracts while automating workflows to save significant time.
