What I'm looking for

I seek a role building scalable backend systems or ML-enabled products at a collaborative company that values security, performance, and measurable impact.

I am a computer science student and full-stack developer with practical experience building scalable backend systems, secure authentication flows, and performant web applications. I combine strong academic foundations with hands-on internships and freelance projects to deliver production-ready software.

At Icog Labs I am training in deep learning and transformer architectures, optimizing models and documenting GPU-accelerated workflows. In industry roles I have implemented JWT-based auth, payment microservices, media pipelines, and geo-location features that improved operational productivity.

I have led backend migrations from Node.js to Go for performance gains, built marketing automation and landing pages that improved user engagement, and discovered and remediated critical security vulnerabilities early. My projects include image-processing services, real-time leaderboards, caching proxies, and content-aggregation platforms.

I prioritize secure, testable, and efficient systems design, and enjoy working across the stack to move products from prototype to production while mentoring with senior engineers and contributing to measurable business outcomes.
