What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles where I can architect compliant, high-scale distributed systems, mentor teams, and drive measurable operational and business impact.

I am a Staff Software Engineer with 15+ years building regulated, high-scale systems across healthcare and fintech, focused on reliability, compliance, and low-latency performance.

I have architected and scaled trading infrastructure, HIPAA-compliant healthcare platforms, and enterprise monitoring systems using distributed systems, microservices, and event-driven patterns.

My technical breadth spans frontend and backend architecture, data engineering pipelines, API design, AI/ML integration, and cloud infrastructure across AWS, GCP, and Azure; I have delivered production-grade systems processing massive data volumes and strict regulatory requirements.

I mentor engineers, lead incident response and migrations, and prioritize operational safety, cost-efficient data platforms, and measurable business impact through engineering excellence.
