What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build reliable, high-scale backend systems and financial workflows, while applying AI and LLM-based workflows to improve engineering productivity and solve complex problems.

At Uber, I build backend workflows for PartnerX and Uber Direct, including store linking that lets merchants consolidate settlement through a single ledger across lines of business.

I designed pricing components for wait-time, cancellation, return-trip fees, and volume-based discounts, and enhanced refund workflows with fee-level visibility, cap validation, and fraud checks. The fraud-detection integration contributed to a 12% reduction in US refunds.

Previously at Amazon ShipTech, I built connectivity-platform services for AS2, SFTP, and API document exchange, including an external API processing 10K documents per day. I also built failure handling with automated retries and alerting, reducing monthly operational tickets by 70%.

I use Go, Java, AWS, distributed systems, and LLM workflows to solve complex backend problems. I built a Claude-powered workflow to generate pricing test cases, validate charges through APIs, and produce CSV reports for Ops review.
