What I'm looking for

I seek backend or platform roles where I can own production services, improve observability and performance, and work on scalable distributed systems.

I am a Software Development Engineer II with 5+ years building backend, batch, and distributed systems at scale, focused on performance, stability, and observability. I take strong ownership of production services, implement resilient state-based processing, and optimize end-to-end pipelines to reduce latency and recovery time.

I have delivered features across ad tech and media products and for enterprise clients, designing REST APIs, event-driven services, ETL pipelines, and instrumentation with OpenTelemetry, Datadog, and Splunk. I prioritize maintainable designs, robust error handling, and measurable improvements in production visibility and throughput.
