Software Engineer with 3+ years of experience in Python and C++.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Software Engineer with over three years of experience specializing in Python and C++. My expertise lies in building scalable microservices and distributed systems, particularly in cloud-native environments using AWS and Kubernetes. I have a proven track record of developing real-time data pipelines and performance-critical APIs, achieving significant reductions in system latency and operational costs through architectural optimizations.
During my tenure at Alef, I successfully implemented a broker-less PUB/SUB model in C++ that drastically improved latency for real-time call data processing. I also developed and deployed multiple FastAPI microservices, enhancing network access control and API throughput. My commitment to quality is reflected in my adoption of Test-Driven Development, which led to a notable decrease in system bugs. I thrive in collaborative environments, working closely with product and QA teams to accelerate feature delivery and optimize backend systems.
With a Master’s degree in Computer Science from the Illinois Institute of Technology and a Bachelor’s in Information Technology, I am well-equipped to tackle complex challenges in software development. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in cloud technologies and big data to drive innovation and efficiency in my next role.
