What I'm looking for

I seek a product-driven engineering role building scalable backend and AI systems, with opportunities for end-to-end ownership, measurable impact, and mentorship.

I am a product-focused software engineer with hands-on experience building scalable backend systems, AI-powered search services, and performance-optimized mobile and web experiences. I have implemented production microservices, migration strategies for vector databases, and large-scale web scraping infrastructure.

At Shoppin’ I built an AI video-search microservice, architected scraping across 100+ domains with proxy rotation and 1000+ IP pools, and migrated vector search from PostgreSQL pgvector to Zilliz Vector DB to improve performance. I also resolved cross-platform performance regressions, implemented deferred deep linking and social sharing optimizations, and developed integrations for Instagram messaging.

I contribute across the stack—Node.js, Python, React, mobile (React Native/Android)—and focus on system design, low-latency services, and measurable product impact. I seek roles where I can drive end-to-end technical solutions and mentor teams to deliver robust, production-quality systems.
