What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that values innovation and offers opportunities for growth.

I am a dedicated software engineer with extensive experience in backend development and cloud solutions. Currently, I work at Caylent, where I create 100% AWS solutions and leverage my skills in C# and .NET. My journey in software engineering has been marked by a commitment to modernizing legacy systems and implementing robust architectures.

Previously, at Wex Inc., I played a pivotal role in transforming a large legacy solution by developing new RESTful APIs and microservices. My expertise in Clean Architecture and event-driven solutions using Kafka and RabbitMQ has been instrumental in enhancing system performance. I thrive in multicultural environments, utilizing Agile methodologies to ensure efficient project delivery and continuous improvement.

Throughout my career, I have embraced Infrastructure as Code (IaC) practices using Terraform and have a strong foundation in various technologies, including Python, SQL Server, and Docker. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to contribute to innovative projects and drive impactful results.
