What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead delivery and architecture for scalable cloud-native products—owning end-to-end requirements, building reliable data pipelines, and driving cost/performance improvements with strong engineering and collaboration.

I’m a Technology Lead with 10+ years of experience delivering complex, production-grade web applications across fintech, e-commerce, and data-driven domains. I lead technical strategy and architect cloud-native systems, combining hands-on engineering with team leadership to ensure end-to-end delivery from requirements to production.

At GALE, I formed and scaled engineering teams from scratch, setting agile workflows, coding standards, and delivery processes that improved output and predictability. I’ve owned client-facing solution design across multiple concurrent projects, and delivered a centralized, data-driven dashboard platform using Apache Airflow ETL pipelines. I introduced Snowflake as the primary data warehousing solution, replacing a legacy setup and reducing infrastructure cost and dashboard query response times.

I’ve also built high-reliability distributed backends and microservices-based systems, leveraging AWS services (ECS, Lambda, RDS, S3, SQS) and containerized CI/CD with Docker. From Django CMS and REST APIs to event-driven design, CDC synchronization, and real-time dashboards, I bring a practical approach to scalability, performance, and maintainability.
