Senior software engineer specializing in scalable full‑stack systems and payment infrastructure.
What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years of experience building full‑stack systems in both startup and enterprise environments. I focus on designing scalable architectures, driving cross‑functional collaboration, and delivering mission‑critical solutions.
At Stripe I led development for embedded banking and Checkout UI, engineered performant form systems with React and TypeScript, and built fault‑tolerant backend services using CQRS, Kafka, gRPC, and event sourcing to support real‑time transactions and compliance.
Previously at Teladoc Health I architected HIPAA‑compliant telehealth platforms, implemented event‑driven microservices, and deployed AI/ML edge solutions for clinical use cases, improving reliability, performance, and patient safety.
I mentor engineering teams, champion best practices like IaC, CI/CD, and automated testing, and build internal tools (including LLM‑powered assistants) to accelerate onboarding and developer productivity.
