Software Engineer building scalable microservices and high-performance REST APIs.

What I'm looking for

I want to build and scale microservices and high-traffic REST APIs, improve production reliability with strong observability, and work on distributed systems that process large volumes of data. I also enjoy mentoring engineers and shipping dependable releases.

I’m a Software Engineer with over 5 years of experience architecting and deploying scalable enterprise systems. I focus on building and optimizing high performance RESTful APIs in microservices environments, with a strong emphasis on system performance.

At Burn Manufacturing USA LLC, I redesigned a legacy MVC application into independently deployable microservices for field sales, inventory management, and staff self service. I extended those microservices to orchestrate AI workflows by integrating LLM APIs, strengthening platform capability while keeping releases reliable and scalable.

I also improved production reliability and debugging across distributed systems by adding OpenTelemetry tracing across HTTP and database layers. To reinforce safe deployments, I used swagger documentation and large automated tests with in memory SQLite and mocked external dependencies.

Before that, at Peak Mobile, I developed a high volume billing service for gaming products processing over 20,000 customer accounts daily with automated retries. I designed and optimized RESTful APIs for bulk data, SMS, and airtime, mentored interns, and helped reduce integration errors by over 40%.
