What I'm looking for
I am a Full-Stack Engineer with over 5 years of experience in developing scalable and performance-driven web applications. My expertise lies in Ruby on Rails and React, complemented by a strong proficiency in relational databases like MySQL and NoSQL databases such as MongoDB. I have a proven track record of leveraging AWS services, including Lambda, S3, and CloudFront, to enhance application performance and reliability.
Throughout my career, I have successfully led projects that required innovative solutions and meticulous attention to detail. At Deall Inc., I redesigned the automated overdue payment processor, ensuring accurate late-fee calculations under high concurrency operations. My role as Engineering Lead at Rootquotient Technologies allowed me to design and scale REST APIs for a payments platform, processing over 10,000 transactions while maintaining zero critical issues. I am passionate about mentoring junior engineers and driving the adoption of best practices in software development.
