What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build reliable backend APIs and microservices, optimize performance and security, and collaborate closely with cross-functional teams and DevOps to ship production-quality software in Agile environments.

I’m a backend-focused Software Engineer with 10 years of experience building scalable web applications using ASP.NET Core, Python, and Java, and integrating responsive frontends with Angular. I design RESTful APIs, implement clean backend architectures, and optimize database performance to improve system efficiency and response times.

In recent roles, I expanded a large-scale e-commerce platform to serve 100,000+ active users, cutting response times by 40% and improving customer satisfaction by 25% through real-time updates with SignalR. I’ve also migrated legacy services to microservices (reducing release cycle times by 50%), enforced JWT/OAuth2 security (reducing security vulnerabilities), and partnered with DevOps to containerize and streamline CI/CD—reducing deployment times by 30%. I lead by example with code reviews, troubleshooting, and agile execution to deliver reliable production results.
