What I'm looking for

I am seeking senior/tech-lead roles where I can architect scalable systems, mentor engineers, drive best practices, and deliver measurable performance and reliability improvements in Agile environments.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with over 10 years of experience building and scaling web applications across SaaS, fintech, healthcare, and enterprise domains. I specialize in full-stack development using JavaScript and TypeScript, and I architect backend systems with microservices and serverless patterns.

I have led engineering teams, set coding standards, conducted code reviews, and mentored developers while driving architectural decisions that improved scalability and performance. My work includes designing RESTful APIs and integrating services such as Stripe and Twilio.

I am experienced deploying production-grade systems on AWS (EC2, Lambda, S3, CloudFront), prioritizing maintainable code, low-latency systems, and efficient DevOps practices including CI/CD and Docker. I have delivered SEO-optimized frontends with Next.js and optimized backend performance to reduce costs and latency.

I thrive in Agile teams, enjoy cross-functional collaboration, and focus on measurable impact—reducing operational costs, improving load times, and cutting release cycle times through refactoring and migration to microservices.
