What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build reliable backend platforms and event-driven services on AWS—owning system design, automation, and workflow orchestration—while collaborating closely with engineering, DevOps, and product.

I’m a Backend Software Engineer with ~4 years of experience designing and building scalable, cloud-native systems. I specialize in microservices-based architectures, RESTful APIs, and distributed systems, with hands-on development on AWS.

At Valeo, I led backend development for a self-service platform that automates project onboarding and CI/CD infrastructure provisioning without DevOps intervention. I also built an event-driven integration platform using Spring Boot and AWS Step Functions, implementing robust workflow orchestration with retries, error handling, and saga-pattern rollback for long-running processes.
