What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can design event-driven, distributed backend platforms on AWS, improve reliability and deployment safety, and collaborate cross-team to ship scalable systems that increase engineering velocity.

I’m a Software Development Engineer at Amazon with 2+ years building large-scale distributed backend systems and event-driven microservices on AWS. I focus on high-throughput services and resilient architectures that strengthen operational stability without slowing down delivery.

In my current role, I designed an event-driven orchestration system using Java and AWS SQS/SNS that enables zero-code workflow onboarding across internal services. I also stabilized a critical deployment pipeline for 85+ microservices by adding automated dependency validation and dynamic configuration management, cutting deployment failures from 30% to 5% and saving 40+ engineering hours per quarter.

I’ve built production-grade platforms that improve scalability and reliability—like a distributed multi-destination routing platform with DynamoDB schema architecture and real-time SQS/SNS event processing. I closed a 20% production data gap with $15M projected annual savings, and I architected surge-buffering across 3 backend services deployed across US and EU regions to handle peak traffic spikes of 1M+ requests/hour.

When internal tooling wasn’t available, I invented and built an automated multi-region launch framework that onboarded 19 services and unblocked 4 region launches. Earlier, as an intern, I delivered a distributed safety monitoring system and built secure REST APIs with OAuth 2.0 authentication to enable reliable service-to-service communication.
