What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a mission-driven team where I can lead 0-to-1 and modernization—microservices, REST APIs, and CI/CD—using scalable architecture patterns and strong testing (integration/performance/chaos) to improve reliability.

I’m a mission-driven Senior Engineering Leader with 9 years of experience building and scaling high-impact production applications. I focus on technical leadership for mission-critical systems, ensuring 24/7 availability for high-visibility operations while modernizing legacy platforms. I enjoy taking products from 0 to 1 and translating requirements into scalable software.

In my recent role, I developed and implemented a Hexagonal Architecture pattern to modernize and support legacy microservices while ensuring continued compliance. I also solved platform-wide deadlocking and record duplication issues by designing a prototype for Multi-Instance Distributed Locking using Spring Boot and Java. I’ve worked with mono-repo organization, package dependency management, and building REST and reverse-proxy capabilities to keep systems robust and maintainable.

I’m equally strong in performance, quality, and release reliability. I designed and developed end-to-end integration tests using Cucumber + Playwright + TypeScript, built K6 performance tests, and implemented Spring Boot Chaos-Monkey testing. Alongside that, I’ve implemented advanced CI/CD techniques and Spring Cloud Contract testing to improve deployment reliability, and I’ve managed the full development lifecycle through QA to Production—using tools like Splunk and AppDynamics to keep systems healthy.
