What I'm looking for

Passionate about driving innovation and improving product outcomes through technology, seeking roles that leverage my expertise in cloud-based solutions and AI-driven applications to deliver high-impact results.

As a Senior Software Engineer with over 12 years of experience, I specialize in designing and developing cloud-based solutions, microservices architectures, and AI-driven applications. My technical expertise spans Java, Spring Boot, Node.js, React.js, and AWS, with a strong focus on building scalable, secure, and serverless systems.

In my current role at Amazon, I've engineered and optimized core backend services for Amazon AppFlow, improving data synchronization efficiency by 20%. I also architected a serverless backend for the AWS re:Post Q&A platform, handling over 500,000 monthly user requests. My work on the Alexa Emergency Assist system reduced emergency response times by 30% and improved accuracy by 40%.

Previously, at Accenture and Target, I developed various systems, including a cloud-based learning management system and real-time analytics dashboards. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Austin and am passionate about driving innovation and improving product outcomes through technology.
