I build scalable backend platforms and improve performance across SaaS, financial, and supply-chain products.
What I'm looking for
I'm building production backend services for Thoughtworks' supply-chain replenishment platform using Java, PostgreSQL, Kafka, Redis, and React. I implement event-driven replenishment workflows and tune data access and caching for reliable latency.
At Qoyod, I reduced database load by 30% and API response times by 40% across systems serving millions of monthly requests. I also redesigned reporting to cut processing time from 5 seconds to 1 second and led delivery of mission-critical Ruby on Rails and React features.
Across Event Inc, Qoyod, Treniq, and Redpanthers, I've built scalable APIs, GraphQL layers, Elasticsearch search, financial audit tools, CI/CD pipelines, payment integrations, and asynchronous Sidekiq workloads. I enjoy taking architecture through production delivery while mentoring engineers and improving system reliability.
