What I'm looking for

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

I am a dedicated Software Engineer with a strong background in designing, developing, and deploying scalable backend systems. My expertise lies in using Java, Spring Boot, and AWS, and I have a proven track record of delivering enterprise-grade APIs for high-traffic airline platforms. I thrive in Agile environments and have successfully collaborated with cross-functional teams to enhance system performance and user experience.

At Delta Air Lines, I played a pivotal role in migrating legacy systems to AWS-based microservices, significantly improving scalability and maintainability. I led the backend development for the Assistive Devices initiative, which enhanced the customer experience for wheelchair service requests. My commitment to continuous improvement is evident in my work on developing new APIs and optimizing existing systems to ensure reliability during peak traffic events.

I am actively seeking opportunities to deepen my cloud-native development skills within fast-paced, growth-oriented environments. I am passionate about leveraging technology to drive innovation and improve operational efficiency.
