Staff Software Engineer specializing in scalable SaaS, e‑commerce platforms, and cloud-native architectures.
What I'm looking for
I am a Staff Software Engineer with 9+ years building and scaling SaaS, scheduling, and e-commerce platforms focused on reliability, clean APIs, and customer-centric delivery.
At Calendly I led platform architecture and migrations from a monolithic Rails stack to Go/Node microservices on GCP/Kubernetes, designed OpenAPI contracts, and delivered workflows, routing forms, and analytics pipelines that serve millions of users.
Previously at BigCommerce I contributed to an API-first commerce platform, built the Stencil storefront framework, implemented GraphQL Storefront APIs, and migrated core systems to Google Cloud while improving CI/CD and observability.
I mentor engineers, drive cross-team alignment, reduce system complexity, and prioritize secure, compliant solutions (SAML, SCIM, OAuth2, SOC2/GDPR) while delivering maintainable, high-impact products.
