What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead end-to-end cloud product work—scalable microservices, high-performance APIs, and responsible AI/ML—within cross-functional teams. I value strong engineering quality, observability, and opportunities to mentor and continuously improve.

I’m a Senior Software Engineer with a proven track record of designing and developing scalable, high-performance systems in cloud-based environments. I drive end-to-end solutions across full-stack features, mobile applications, and integration of machine learning and AI, with a strong emphasis on quality, scalability, and continuous improvement.

At Microsoft, I led the design and development of scalable backend services on Azure with C# and .NET Core, reducing latency by 20% for high-traffic applications. I’ve also engineered full-stack features with React/Next.js and Node.js, architected REST APIs using Microsoft Graph to improve performance by 15%, and integrated Azure Machine Learning to deliver real-time personalized recommendations that increased user engagement by 18%.

I’ve built Large Language Models and Generative AI solutions using Azure OpenAI and Microsoft Copilot to enhance content recommendations and automate customer support responses, improving satisfaction by 20% and reducing response times by 25%. I build for resilience—using Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), Docker, and event-driven architectures with Apache Kafka—while maintaining 99.99% uptime, strong CI/CD testing practices, and mentoring for secure software design through cross-functional collaboration.
