What I'm looking for

I seek roles building scalable backend/platform systems or SaaS products where I can drive architecture, automation, and cross-team developer productivity in a collaborative, impact-focused environment.

I am a Principal-level software engineer with deep experience building large-scale distributed systems, SaaS platforms, and developer-facing tools across startups and enterprise environments. I led backend, frontend, and platform work — from Python-based services and DynamoDB single-table design to Next.js frontends, Stripe billing, and containerized ECS deployments — delivering production-grade, highly available systems.

At Capital One I drove platform initiatives across cybersecurity lineage, SDLC, and ML model delivery, building high-throughput pipelines (Kafka, SQS), analytics (Postgres, Elasticsearch, Grafana), and observability for thousands of engineers. I focus on scalable architecture, automation, and reliable integrations that reduce risk and improve developer productivity.
