Senior software engineer specializing in resilient web scraping and data extraction for high-accuracy analytics.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Software Engineer with 12+ years of IT experience, focused on building resilient web scraping systems and data extraction techniques. I specialize in Python and browser automation, with a strong grasp of HTTP protocols and anti-bot evasion strategies to keep data collection compliant and reliable.
At Capgemini, I architected large-scale scraping systems using Python and Selenium, cutting data retrieval time by 30% while improving data accuracy by 25%. I also engineered data pipelines with Docker and AWS, building monitoring that reduced downtime by 40% to maintain high availability, then used Kubernetes to increase throughput by 50% and lower operational costs.
Earlier, at Jade Global and Providence Health & Services, I delivered data-driven web applications with Flask and Python/JavaScript, improved user engagement by 20% and retention by 25%, and strengthened performance through database optimization and rigorous testing practices. I bring a continuous-improvement mindset—regular code reviews, knowledge sharing, and mentoring—so teams move faster with higher quality.
