What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on engineering role where I build scalable web/cloud systems, lead technical delivery, and improve observability and automation in a collaborative, growth-focused team.

I am a Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer with experience building scalable web applications and cloud infrastructure, blending frontend expertise in React with backend services in C# (ASP.Net) and NestJS. I have a track record of integrating databases, event streaming, and third-party APIs to deliver production-grade systems.

At Griffin Global Technologies I led technical troubleshooting, implemented CI/CD with GitHub Actions, and provisioned AWS resources with Terraform while using Docker for containerization and Playwright for end-to-end tests. Previously I designed APIs and frontend interfaces, documented components with Storybook, and contributed to technical content as a writer and mentor.

I work collaboratively, prioritize business-driven sprint planning, and focus on observability, automation, and robust integrations to accelerate product delivery and maintain reliability in production environments.
