What I'm looking for

I am seeking senior engineering roles building cloud-native, scalable systems with strong DevOps practices, collaborative teams, and opportunities to mentor and improve reliability.

I am a Full Stack Software Engineer with 6+ years building enterprise-scale Java applications and cloud-native systems using Spring Boot, AWS, Elasticsearch, and Kafka. I design and implement high-performance microservices, search and analytics solutions, and event-driven architectures that serve mission-critical operations.

My background includes hands-on experience across the stack — backend services, responsive front ends (Angular/React), containerization with Docker/Kubernetes, and Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and CloudFormation. I have improved CI/CD, mentored engineers, and provided Tier 3 support to enhance reliability and observability in production environments.

I hold a Master's in Computer Science and machine learning certifications, and I focus on delivering maintainable, secure, and performant systems that align with business objectives and enable rapid, reliable delivery.
