What I'm looking for

I seek backend or platform roles where I can design scalable distributed systems, improve reliability, and work with cross-functional teams to deliver measurable performance gains.

I am a results-driven software engineer with 3.5 years of experience building high-performance, scalable backend systems and microservices using Golang, Node.js, and Python.

At Yellow.ai, I owned the backend for an Inbox module, migrated delayed queues to an in-house Golang task scheduler with Kafka, solved duplicate-ticket issues using a Redis Lua distributed lock, and improved export-service report times by up to 25%.

Previously, I led the development of a real-time DICOM API Gateway (Sonio Edge) at Samsung Medison, re-architecting for a 20% runtime improvement and 10% error reduction, and implemented RabbitMQ-based async workers to offload processing.

At Ansys, I designed an optimized object storage using radix trees that reduced memory by 95% and runtime by 85%, scaled designs to support over a billion instances with MapReduce and serialization techniques, and improved distributed partitioning for better processing accuracy.
