What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges me technically and allows for mentorship opportunities while fostering a collaborative team environment.

As a Staff Software Engineer at Shopify, I have led the development of innovative solutions that enhance user experience and drive business growth. My work on the Buy Now, Pay Later integration has significantly improved customer checkout options, while my initiatives in storefront performance have resulted in measurable SEO and revenue gains. I thrive in collaborative environments, working cross-functionally with product, infrastructure, and design teams to deliver impactful features.

Previously, as a Senior Software Engineer at Teladoc Health, I designed scalable telehealth solutions and migrated our platform to a microservices architecture, enhancing system reliability. My commitment to mentoring junior engineers and establishing best practices has fostered a culture of quality and continuous improvement. I am passionate about leveraging technology to solve complex problems and improve user satisfaction.
