What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative, inclusive engineering role where I can lead backend architecture, integrate LLMs, improve CI/CD and scalability, mentor engineers, and drive measurable performance and efficiency gains.

I am an accomplished Senior Software Engineer with over 10 years of experience building scalable web applications and systems using Python, TypeScript, Ruby, Go, and Java. I have led backend initiatives that improved performance and scalability, implemented CI/CD pipelines, optimized MySQL and PostgreSQL databases, and integrated LLM techniques to enhance data processing and product capabilities.

I thrive in collaborative, inclusive teams where mentorship and cross-functional communication drive results. I have a strong cloud and DevOps background (AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform), front-end experience with React/Next.js, and a track record of reducing deployment time, improving system efficiency, and delivering user-focused software.
