What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, innovation, and collaboration.

I am a highly motivated and detail-oriented Software Developer with a strong foundation in designing, developing, and deploying scalable applications. My proficiency spans both backend development using Go and Java (Spring Boot), as well as frontend development with TypeScript. I thrive in agile environments, where I can work independently or collaboratively to deliver high-quality, efficient, and maintainable code.

In my current role at Savannah Health Informatics, I have developed and maintained robust backend services for various digital health partners, including notable organizations like Johnson & Johnson and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. My contributions include supporting the development of a national government health insurance system that serves over 18 million users. I have also implemented scalable gRPC microservices, ensuring high performance and low latency for inter-service communication.

Throughout my career, I have consistently focused on code quality and reliability, performing peer mentoring and code reviews. My experience extends to deploying applications on cloud platforms such as AWS, where I write infrastructure configurations as code. I am eager to contribute my technical expertise and continue learning in a dynamic and growth-oriented environment.
