What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles where I can lead backend and payments systems, drive automation and reliability, and mentor teams in a collaborative, growth-focused organization.

I am a senior software engineer with 11+ years building high-quality web, backend, and AI-driven systems, focused on scalable, reliable, and user-centered solutions.

At Amazon I led backend services for healthcare workflows and payment processing, delivered an Amazon Pay SDK, and improved release quality with automated tests and monitoring to reduce incidents.

Earlier I built and operated telemedicine backends at Teladoc Health, automated patient workflows and payments, and delivered server-side conversational automation to significantly cut manual work.
