What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a remote, product-focused role where I can own backend/platform systems end to end—shipping distributed services, improving reliability and observability, and applying AI (RAG/guardrails) responsibly within strong engineering standards.

I’m a Senior Software Engineer and Software Architect with 15+ years building backend platforms, distributed systems, and cloud-native services across complex product and integration environments. I work well in remote international teams, and I take ambiguous technical problems end to end—combining production engineering, architecture, mentoring, and delivery alignment.

At Luxury Escapes, I own backend engineering in the Experiences vertical, building provider integrations, booking/voucher flows, search/discovery, analytics, and operational reliability. I’ve expanded an AI-powered attraction curation pipeline from 75 attractions in 5 cities to 1,193+ across 18 countries and 56 cities, added validation guardrails, and shipped integration improvements with strong reliability and visibility.

Previously, I led platform and architecture work at ALLOS—standardizing CI/CD and governance across 67 repositories, designing observability strategies with OpenTelemetry and hybrid monitoring, and driving security and health metrics. Earlier roles included technical leadership at íilia digital and building web engineering foundations from scratch at Limber Software, with a strong focus on quality gates, automated testing, and scalable delivery.
