What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a backend-focused role where I can build secure, scalable cloud-native services on AWS/GCP, improve reliability and performance, and partner with teams on CI/CD and mentoring—while delivering real cost and developer-experience wins.

I’m a Senior Backend Engineer with 7 years building cloud-native Java/Spring Boot microservices for SaaS and data platforms at 5X and Moodraa. I focus on delivering secure, scalable services across AWS/GCP while keeping performance, reliability, and cost efficiency front and center.

At 5X, I designed and scaled microservices-based backend systems, reducing cloud spend by 30% through architecture optimization. I also containerized and improved deploy consistency with Docker and Kubernetes, cutting release deployment time by 25% and strengthening code quality via unit testing practices.

I’ve led and shipped platforms that directly improve developer and data workflows, including a Next-Gen BYOC orchestration platform across AWS and GCP and a secure Streamlit IDE for data apps. I also built multi-region CockroachDB integration with intelligent query routing to reduce latency under distributed load.

My work is AI-first and team-oriented—I integrate tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Copilot to enhance code reviews, debugging, and spec creation. I mentor engineers and introduce practical agile delivery habits, including CI/CD and code review practices, so teams move faster with confidence.
