What I'm looking for

I seek roles building scalable backend and ML-driven infrastructure, with collaborative teams, strong DevOps practices, and opportunities to optimize system performance and reliability.

I am a backend-focused full stack engineer with strong expertise in Java, Go, Python, Spring Boot, and AWS, experienced in building and optimizing large-scale distributed systems and ML-driven backend infrastructure.

I have delivered production services at scale—improving transaction throughput, optimizing query performance, and reducing deployment failures—by unifying microservices, data pipelines, and automation using Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, Jenkins, and GitHub Actions.

I lead practical engineering solutions that combine observability, security (OAuth 2.0, JWT, RBAC), and cost-efficient auto-scaling, and I enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams to align architecture with business and compliance goals.
