Full-Stack Engineer with expertise in software development and reliability.
What I'm looking for
I'm a Full-Stack / Site Reliability Engineer with over three years of experience in developing software applications for both enterprise and customer-facing environments. My expertise lies in producing high-quality code using JavaScript, Python, and Ruby, and I have a strong background in both backend and frontend systems. I am recognized as a Subject Matter Expert (SME) for critical tax integrations and thrive in cross-functional Agile teams.
At U.S. Cellular, I develop Next.js features integrated with Node.js APIs for customer-facing applications and maintain an internal tax platform using Java/Oracle/JavaScript. My role involves automating status checks with open-source tools, which has significantly reduced false positives and improved incident response. I also manage CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions and Jenkins to ensure secure and traceable deployments.
Previously, at IBM, I designed and developed internal enterprise tools using Angular and SAP Commerce, automating infrastructure and data migration with Docker and Python scripts. My commitment to high-quality production code and effective communication has enabled me to resolve recurring reliability issues and improve overall system performance.
