What I'm looking for

I seek backend/platform roles where I can build reliable, scalable systems, improve CI/CD and observability, and apply ML to real-world problems in collaborative teams.

I’ve designed and built high-performance services, including a Kafka Management application that improved system maintenance and security workflows, and I led Jenkins CI/CD pipeline automation that reduced vulnerability remediation time by 80%. I also have hands-on experience collaborating with GenAI teams, integrating ML-driven features and automation.

I’m passionate about solving complex engineering problems, optimizing system performance, and building reliable, large-scale backend services. I enjoy high-velocity environments where I can own features end-to-end and contribute to impactful engineering decisions.
