What I'm looking for

I seek a remote-first, collaborative engineering role where I can lead full-stack projects, modernize systems, mentor teams, and drive scalable, high-performance solutions.

I am a Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer with over 10 years of experience designing, developing, and scaling modern web applications across eCommerce, healthcare, and enterprise SaaS.

I specialize in Ruby on Rails, React, TypeScript, Node.js, and cloud-native architectures, and I have driven migrations from monoliths to microservices that reduced deployment time by 30% and cut server load by 50% through caching and optimizations.

I design secure RESTful and real-time APIs, build CI/CD pipelines with Docker and GitHub Actions, and implement performance improvements that increased user engagement by 40% while improving speed and scalability.

I mentor junior engineers, lead code reviews, and champion engineering best practices within Agile, remote-first teams to improve team velocity and deliver maintainable, high-quality code.
