What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles building secure, scalable cloud and health-tech systems with strong collaboration, mentorship, and opportunities to drive AI-enabled product impact.

I am a Staff Software Engineer with 10+ years building secure, scalable cloud platforms, real-time data pipelines, and full-stack applications across GCP and AWS. I have led design and implementation of backend microservices, data engineering pipelines, and AI integrations that processed millions of health records and improved system latency and clinician engagement.

My work emphasizes reliability, performance, and compliance in health-tech environments: I architected clinical search and analytics engines, built real-time dashboards with React and WebSocket streams, optimized databases and ETL workflows, and implemented federated learning and differential privacy for secure AI. I mentor engineers, drive cross-functional collaboration, and deliver high-quality, tested systems through CI/CD and containerized deployments.
