## What I'm looking for

```text
I'm looking to lead and build scalable enterprise backend platforms, shape architecture, mentor engineers, and work closely with clients and stakeholders on impactful software delivery.
```

## About

```text
At Rare Crew, I build enterprise platforms for global sports and media organizations, including IMG products such as Vault ERP, Global CRM, IMG eApproval, TWG WALL, and the UFC App.

I design scalable REST APIs and reusable backend architecture with C#, ASP.NET Core, Entity Framework Core, DDD, CQRS, and MediatR. I’ve improved eApp submission API response times by 70% through SQL optimization, indexing, LINQ tuning, and in-memory caching.

I work across Azure App Service, Azure SQL, Blob Storage, Key Vault, Functions, Storage Queues, and Application Insights. I also deliver secure authentication with JWT, Microsoft Entra ID, RBAC, and managed identities, plus real-time workflows through SignalR and Firebase Cloud Messaging.

I lead 8–12 engineers while staying hands-on with coding, architecture, code reviews, sprint planning, client requirements, UAT, and releases. Earlier, I built backend services for enterprise web and mobile products and supported real-time scoreboard APIs for the South Asian Games.
