What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an agile team where I can own backend and event-driven systems on AWS, improve observability and reliability, and deliver end-to-end customer-first features—while continuously learning and using AI-assisted tooling to move faster.

I’m a Software Development Engineer at Amazon, where I designed and launched an Ads translation feature that boosted processing efficiency by 150% (2.5x) and cut task time from 5 minutes to 2 minutes. I also owned the lifecycle management of 10+ microservices, driving version upgrades and deprecations while strengthening reliability through CI/CD practices.

I architect and build scalable backend services with Java and Spring Boot, improving performance, availability, and maintainability across distributed systems. I enhance observability with structured logging and monitoring to reduce debugging time, and I build fault-tolerant event-driven workflows using AWS services like Lambda, S3, SQS, SNS, Step Functions, AppConfig, and CloudWatch—always with a strong customer-first mindset.
