What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role in a dynamic environment that fosters innovation and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I'm a seasoned software engineer with over 6.5 years of experience in development, focusing on creating scalable and high-volume systems. My expertise lies in designing performant architectures using Python Django, React, and AWS. I thrive in agile, cross-functional teams, ensuring reliability, scalability, and continuous improvements in system performance.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led multiple initiatives, from scoping MVP features to launch, while mentoring peers on best practices in security, scalable architecture, and operational excellence. My recent role as a Fullstack Engineer II at Apicbase involved architecting a time-cost framework that integrates HR, payroll, and real-time sales data, emphasizing performance and scalability.

I am passionate about driving innovative solutions and committed to excellence in every project I undertake. My goal is to leverage my skills in a dynamic environment where I can contribute to impactful projects and continue to grow professionally.
