What I'm looking for

I’m looking to own backend architecture end to end, build distributed systems and cloud services, and deliver measurable performance wins—using clean design, testing, and automation to ship reliably for real users.

I’m a backend software engineer with production experience across Golang, distributed systems, and cloud infrastructure. I’m known for turning engineering rigor into measurable results, like cutting API latency by 98% and database load by 93% on a 2M+ user product.

Most recently, I’ve spent a year building production automation and AI-driven systems for business clients—shipping custom platforms end to end. As a Senior Software Engineer & Technical Consultant, I’ve served as the sole technical owner for multiple concurrent B2B engagements, directly scoping requirements, making build-vs-buy decisions, and owning delivery without an engineering team behind me.

I’ve designed and shipped a production automation platform using a Node.js/Python backend, a React dashboard, auth, and orchestration across multiple third-party APIs with OpenAI/Claude-driven decision logic. I’ve also built multi-source analytics/reporting pipelines (Google Ads, Meta Ads, GA4) that generate LLM-based insights and reclaim roughly $8K/year in analyst time for one client.

Earlier, I delivered scalable Golang + Couchbase backend systems for an LMS/community app (2M+ downloads, 30K+ active users), reducing API response time from 9.2s to 141ms (98%) and decreasing DB operations by 93%. I led development from requirements and system design through TDD, deployment, and post-release monitoring, applying clean architecture and peer review throughout.
