What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative engineering role focused on building scalable, secure healthcare web applications with opportunities to mentor, influence product direction, and adopt modern cloud and CI/CD practices.

I am a Senior Full-Stack Developer with 12+ years building scalable web applications, primarily in healthcare technology, using React, Node.js, Java, and PostgreSQL. I focus on delivering reliable, high-performance systems through microservices, CI/CD, automated testing, and cloud deployments.

I collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to align product features with user needs, mentor junior engineers, and drive technical improvements. My achievements include implementing robust RESTful APIs, improving application performance, establishing automated test frameworks, and streamlining deployments with Docker, Jenkins, and AWS.
