Builder-minded Senior Full Stack Engineer focused on scalable cloud-native systems.
What I'm looking for
I am a builder-minded Senior Full Stack Engineer with 8+ years architecting and scaling high-throughput web applications using JavaScript/TypeScript and AWS. I have led end-to-end feature delivery in startup and fintech environments, designing resilient distributed systems and mentoring engineering teams.
At Angel Company I designed serverless backend services handling tens of thousands of transactions per minute, reduced API latency by 40%, and improved cloud cost efficiency by 25% while implementing CI/CD with Terraform and AWS CodeBuild. Previously I contributed to cloud automation and multi-tenant AI deployments at C3 AI Labs and led payment platform migrations and AI-based fraud detection at Honor.
I am passionate about combining strong engineering fundamentals, observability, and automated delivery to produce high-performance, cost-effective systems. I seek opportunities where I can drive architectural decisions, mentor engineers, and build production-ready AI and fintech infrastructure.
