What I'm looking for

I’m looking for roles where I can modernize legacy systems and ship secure payment or platform features on AWS, partnering with infrastructure leads, and using AI-assisted engineering to accelerate delivery without sacrificing quality.

I’m a Senior full-stack software engineer with 11+ years building web, mobile, and cloud applications across fintech, legal tech, and enterprise domains. I specialize in Node.js, AWS serverless architecture, React/React Native, and CI/CD automation, with a track record of leading payment platform integrations, legacy system modernizations, and security initiatives.

In my most recent role, I designed and shipped a trial-signup security platform (reCAPTCHA v3, email verification, rate limiting, spam pattern detection), reducing fraudulent signups by 99%. I also migrated a legacy marketing website to WordPress on AWS Lightsail and modernized a serverless estate by upgrading Node.js from v12 to v22/v24 across 13 AWS Lambda functions and 11 shared layers, eliminating end-of-life runtime risk.
