What I'm looking for

I seek senior-level roles building cloud-native, scalable systems with strong DevOps practices, automation, and collaborative teams focused on delivery and quality.

I am a results-driven senior software engineer with 12 years of experience in cloud migration, DevOps, and full-stack development. I focus on automation, observability, and delivering high-quality solutions under tight deadlines.

At Moderna, I architected high-performance API gateways, led multi-platform DevOps pipelines, migrated databases to Azure, and integrated FHIR/EDI×12 data solutions using AWS Fargate. I developed authentication solutions with Azure B2C for thousands of users and drove backend improvements with Django, Flask, and PostgreSQL.

Previously at Oracle and NTT Data, I extended quantitative analytics libraries, implemented global MongoDB deployments, designed resilient distributed systems, and improved processing latency through optimized pipelines and architectures. I have contributed to open-source drivers and built CI/CD automation across TeamCity, Octopus, and Azure DevOps.

I bring strong technical leadership, mentorship, and cross-team collaboration to complex projects, and I adopt AI-powered tooling to accelerate development while maintaining rigorous testing and security practices.
