What I'm looking for

I seek a senior engineering role driving cloud-native architecture and real-time systems, with opportunities to mentor, apply AI/ML, and improve reliability in a collaborative, impact-driven team.

I am a senior full-stack engineer with deep experience designing and shipping scalable cloud-based systems for healthcare and enterprise products. I combine frontend expertise in React/TypeScript with backend systems in Node.js and Python to deliver high-performance, user-focused applications.

At Teladoc Health I led a migration from a Django monolith to microservices, architected AWS infrastructure, implemented event-driven streaming with Kafka and RabbitMQ, and built realtime WebSocket solutions for high-frequency vitals data. I also introduced RBAC and OAuth2/JWT authentication for over 10,000 enterprise users.

Previously at Microsoft I contributed to Microsoft Teams desktop (React, WebView2) and backend services in C#/.NET, and worked on Windows 11 features to improve multitasking. At Accenture I built micro-frontends, serverless event-driven platforms on AWS, and CI/CD pipelines that improved scalability and reduced costs.

I mentor junior engineers, automate deployments with CI/CD, and apply ML/AI tools such as OpenAI and LangChain to create agentic systems. I seek roles where I can drive architecture, improve reliability, and deliver meaningful user impact.
