What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles building scalable, secure microservices in cloud-first teams where I can lead, mentor, and drive DevOps and CI/CD best practices.

I build resilient, high-throughput backend systems and lead engineering teams to deliver production-grade microservices for fintech and enterprise products. I designed OAuth 2.0 security from scratch, implemented an API gateway with rate limiting and circuit breakers, and integrated transaction processing that supports $2M+ monthly volume with 99.99% uptime.

I champion event-driven architectures using Kafka, Debezium, CQRS and CDC to enable real-time sync, and I drive DevOps and CI/CD adoption with Docker, Kubernetes and cloud automation. I mentor engineers, run technical trainings, and collaborate closely with product owners to cut scope churn and accelerate delivery.
