What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years building high-quality web, backend, and AI-driven systems, focused on delivering production-ready solutions and optimizing developer workflows.
At Amazon I led development of AI document automation, ASR/NLU/TTS voice agents, chat-based document assistants, and HIPAA-compliant billing workflows; at Navan I helped launch an end-to-end booking platform and built scalable backend services with CI/CD and resilient queues.
I prioritize reliable, testable systems that reduce rework and latency, leverage modern AI frameworks and cloud platforms, and collaborate across teams to drive measurable business impact.
