Nelson Tao

I am a results-driven Senior Full-Stack Engineer focused on Go (Golang) and building scalable microservice architectures that deliver high throughput and low latency. I design and optimize backend systems, APIs, and data pipelines while emphasizing security, observability, and maintainability.

At Alix I led AI-enhanced agent systems and architected Kafka-backed, event-driven services, improving scalability and deployment efficiency. At Commentsold I built high-traffic checkout systems, integrated payment gateways, and refactored legacy workflows into microservices to improve performance and conversion.

I enjoy mentoring engineers, standardizing best practices and AI-assisted development tools, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to ship robust, production-grade systems that solve complex business problems.
