What I'm looking for

I’m looking for full-time remote backend roles with global product teams. I’m comfortable with async-first workflows, US/EU overlap hours, and contractor arrangements, and I enjoy owning end-to-end backend architecture, API contracts, and integrations.

I’m a Senior Backend Engineer with 5+ years of experience designing and shipping production-grade REST API systems for automotive SaaS platforms. I focus on Node.js and TypeScript, building reliable multi-tenant backend services with PostgreSQL and Redis, and deploying on AWS.

I’ve driven measurable performance and resilience improvements—reducing critical SQL execution time by 45% via stored procedure and indexing optimization, and eliminating redundant load by designing a Redis cache-aside layer with TTL-based invalidation. I’ve also decomposed a monolith into domain-bounded Node.js/Express.js modules, implemented retry and circuit-breaker patterns for third-party integrations, and integrated an AI-powered reporting assistant into a Node.js backend for instant natural-language answers.
