What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead cloud-native backend and AI integrations—designing reliable microservices, improving performance and uptime at scale, and shipping secure REST APIs with strong engineering practices and real ownership.

I’m a Senior Software Engineer with 9+ years of experience building scalable backend systems, cloud-native applications, and microservices architectures. I focus on designing RESTful APIs, distributed systems, and high-performance services with a strong emphasis on reliability, scalability, and security.

In recent roles, I designed and implemented microservices-based backend systems using Node.js and Django, improving scalability by 50%. I built RESTful APIs with 99.99% uptime, optimized PostgreSQL/MongoDB queries to reduce latency by 70%, and delivered CI/CD improvements by 85% with GitHub Actions and Jenkins.

I’ve also led large-scale distributed systems on GCP, processing big datasets with BigQuery and Apache Spark to reduce processing time by 60%, and migrating to serverless architectures to improve scalability and cut costs by 30%. I integrate AI in production using OpenAI API, LangChain, Hugging Face, Transformers, and vector databases, pairing strong engineering practices with end-to-end ownership from design through deployment and monitoring.
