Senior software engineer specializing in scalable distributed systems, AI/LLM, and full‑stack delivery.
What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Software Engineer with 13+ years building high-performance full-stack web, mobile, cloud, and AI systems for startups and enterprises. I design and deliver scalable microservices, real-time pipelines, and production-ready LLM/AI solutions across the stack.
My work includes architecting LLM inference pipelines, implementing RAG/embeddings/vector search, optimizing databases and caching layers, and automating infrastructure with Terraform and CI/CD. I have reduced latency, improved throughput, and cut infrastructure costs through targeted refactors and performance initiatives.
I lead system design reviews, write ADRs and architecture diagrams, mentor engineers on distributed systems and LLM integration, and drive reliable, compliant solutions in regulated environments.
