What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can own end-to-end features, improve maintainability and performance, collaborate cross-functionally, and mentor others in a growth-oriented, engineering-driven team.

I am a software engineer with five years of experience building and maintaining production systems at nationwide scale, focused on clarity, maintainability, and ownership. I work across frontend and backend stacks and prioritize creating codebases that evolve gracefully.

I have led feature ownership, created shared component libraries and design systems, and implemented CI/CD workflows to improve developer efficiency and product reliability. I collaborate closely with product, design, QA, and infrastructure teams to deliver measurable improvements in performance and observability.

My notable achievements include modernizing legacy frontend services with React and Next.js, building backend APIs with Go and PostgreSQL, and shipping AI-powered and subscription management projects available on my site and GitHub. I am motivated by building reliable systems and helping teams deliver scalable, maintainable products.
