What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a product-minded team where I can ship GenAI-powered features, design scalable microservices, and build developer tooling—using RAG and LLM orchestration to reduce latency, cost, and hallucinations.

I’m a product-focused Software Engineer specializing in Applied GenAI Systems and full stack engineering, with 2+ years of production experience building high-concurrency web applications and distributed microservices. I thrive across the full lifecycle—delivering high-throughput backends, optimizing database performance, and deploying context-aware internal developer tooling that scales reliably.

At Verizon, I architected and deployed a custom GitHub Copilot Agent Extension for enterprise onboarding, and built an automated documentation pipeline to keep an agent’s knowledge accurate and hallucination-resistant. I’ve also engineered asynchronous event-handling middleware, implemented cryptographically secure JWT and fine-grained RBAC for security, and delivered client-side state management with integration test suites—while advancing my GenAI work through RAG pipelines and model routing.
