What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, collaboration, and growth opportunities.

With over 14 years of experience as a Staff Software Engineer, I have a proven track record of delivering high-performance, full-stack systems in the healthcare and SaaS domains. My expertise lies in designing event-driven microservices and cloud-native architectures using a variety of programming languages, including Java, Go, and Python. I am passionate about optimizing system scalability and building intelligent AI integrations that enhance user experience and operational efficiency.

At CVS Health, I architected and led the development of cloud-native healthcare platforms, achieving a 50% improvement in throughput and scaling systems to support 10x user traffic. My efforts in refactoring legacy monoliths into event-driven microservices have significantly increased modularity and scalability. I also take pride in my ability to drive Agile practices, contributing to faster feature delivery and fewer post-release issues, all while maintaining a focus on quality through automated testing strategies.

Previously, at Apporto, I re-architected a monolithic remote desktop delivery system into modular microservices, enhancing scalability and reducing infrastructure load. My work in designing real-time video streaming infrastructure and optimizing backend services has been instrumental in delivering low-latency experiences to users globally. I am committed to continuous learning and improvement, always seeking innovative solutions to complex challenges.
