What I'm looking for

I seek a senior engineering role building cloud-native, privacy-focused web platforms where I can mentor teams, drive architecture, and deliver reliable, scalable solutions.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with over 10 years building scalable, high-performance web applications, primarily in the healthcare domain. I design and implement cloud-native solutions emphasizing data privacy, compliance, and system reliability.

I have driven technical decisions across React/Next.js, ASP.NET Core, Node.js, serverless architectures, and AWS/Azure, delivering platforms that supported tens of thousands of users and achieved 99.99% uptime while improving query performance and reducing costs.

I mentor engineers, promote Domain-Driven Design and SOLID principles, and collaborate with cross-functional Agile teams to align technical execution with business goals and deliver impactful, patient- and clinical-facing solutions.
