What I'm looking for

I’m seeking high-ownership senior individual contributor or tech lead roles at product companies, building scalable backend platforms, distributed systems, and cloud-native microservices.

At Zeus Learning, I own architecture and delivery across 18–20 microservices and 12–15 microfrontends for a multi-product platform, leading 10–12 engineers as the technical decision-maker.

I’ve built event-driven platforms using MySQL, MongoDB, AWS S3, Azure Blob, and RabbitMQ, and defined standards supporting 10K+ concurrent users. I also created a Debezium CDC pipeline that replaced polling jobs and reduced data lag from minutes to seconds.

Previously, I led the revamp of a React-based gaming platform serving 100K+ users and shipped reusable services adopted across projects, reducing feature development time by 50%.

I build modular serverless services with Node.js, PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, and AWS Lambda, mentor engineers through code reviews, and use system design and performance testing to remove delivery bottlenecks.
