Software engineer specializing in high-scale distributed systems and performance.
What I'm looking for
I am a software engineer with 4+ years building and operating high-scale distributed systems, focused on performance, scalability, and observability. I bring strong expertise in Java and Go and a proven history of designing services for platforms serving 60M+ users.
In recent roles I architected high-performance distributed systems and implemented deep-level optimizations to ensure scalability and low-latency communication under heavy load. I engineered fintech features for 60M+ customers and cut release cycles in half by building an end-to-end testing platform and migrating legacy systems to Kubernetes.
I have delivered mission-critical software for large-scale government projects with a focus on compliance and security within strict regulatory frameworks. My work emphasizes reliability, testability, and maintainability using TDD, SOLID, and established design patterns.
I thrive in environments that demand strong systems design, observability, and performance tuning, and I seek opportunities to drive large-scale impact using cloud-native infrastructure, robust CI/CD, and modern observability tooling.
