What I'm looking for

I seek backend- or cloud-focused roles where I can design scalable systems, lead technical decisions, collaborate cross-functionally, and grow into architecture or technical leadership while working with modern cloud-native stacks.

I am a seasoned software engineer with 5+ years of experience building and delivering scalable, maintainable backend systems and APIs across cloud platforms. I specialize in designing system architecture, selecting appropriate cloud services, and implementing CI/CD and observability to ensure reliable production delivery.

My background spans full lifecycle development including RESTful API design, database modeling, asynchronous processing, and integrating third-party services. I have hands-on experience with AWS and GCP, containerization, testing with Jest, and driving cross-functional collaboration to meet deadlines and budgets.

I take a pragmatic, risk-aware approach to engineering: defining standards, mentoring teams on best practices, and proactively identifying and mitigating project risks to ensure smooth delivery and high-quality outcomes.
