At Match Group, I migrated a SQL Server notification queue to a Kafka-based event-driven architecture in C# and .NET, reducing average processing latency by 60% and eliminating database contention under peak load.

I also configured Redis read distribution and caching to lower master CPU utilization by about 60% and improve notification latency by 75%. I designed 64 alert rules and delivered a Grafana dashboard for delivery visibility across 15+ brands.

At PAGUE MENOS DRUGSTORES, I modernized a legacy warehouse labeling system with C#, .NET 8, React, TypeScript, and SQL Server, cutting monthly operational costs by 50%. Earlier at NDS, I contributed to a full ERP system that streamlined academic and administrative workflows for more than 4,000 students.
