What I'm looking for

I seek a technical role building scalable backend/cloud systems with strong engineering practices, automated testing, and collaborative DevOps culture.

I am a results-driven MEng-trained engineer with hands-on experience building cloud-native backend systems, RESTful APIs, and CI/CD pipelines. I developed a production-ready resource sharing platform with FastAPI, Next.js, PostgreSQL, GCP, Docker and automated testing, achieving over 80% test coverage and robust DevOps integration.

Previously I drove data-informed product decisions as a Digital Content & Data Specialist, building SQL reporting pipelines, web-scraping analytics, and coordinating cross-functional releases that supported measurable revenue growth. I bring strong systems design, multi-threaded C++ experience, and a pragmatic, collaborative approach to delivering reliable software at scale.
