Senior software engineer and microservices architect driving high-throughput cloud-native systems.
What I'm looking for
I am a senior software engineer and microservices architect with 11 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, high-throughput distributed systems.
I have led cross-functional teams and mentored engineers while architecting event-driven solutions using Kafka, Spring Boot, Kubernetes, and AWS, achieving up to 5M records/hour per pod and 30x throughput improvements.
I've driven migrations to serverless using Terraform, developed and deployed dozens of microservices, and implemented caching, pub/sub, and security solutions (OAuth, SAML, Spring Security) to improve latency, resilience, and user experience.
I focus on pragmatic architecture trade-offs, developer enablement (delivered Kafka training to 60 engineers), and continuous delivery practices to reduce operational overhead and accelerate product outcomes.
