What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a Staff-level cloud/platform role where I can architect scalable distributed systems on AWS and Kubernetes, optimize infrastructure costs, strengthen CI/CD and observability, and help integrate AI into backend processes.

I’m a results-driven Tech Leader and Systems Architect with over 10 years of experience building and scaling high-performance distributed systems. I bridge complex engineering decisions to business profitability, with a focus on infrastructure cost optimization and reliable backend integration.

In my most recent roles, I architect high-availability solutions for massive concurrent traffic, strengthen CI/CD, and align platform decisions with product needs. I’ve worked across Node.js/TypeScript, Python, and cloud-native systems on AWS, Kubernetes, and microservices.

I also lead teams and advise on infrastructure strategy—deploying and operating Kubernetes with ArgoCD, delivering infrastructure as code with Terraform, and improving observability using OpenTelemetry. From reducing AWS costs by 50% to modernizing legacy systems, I’m focused on making platforms faster, safer, and more cost-effective.
