What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration, innovation, and growth opportunities.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with a strong focus on React, TypeScript, and modern frontend architecture. My experience spans across notable companies such as Amazon Music, Google, and Quantcast, where I have honed my skills in building accessible and scalable UI systems. I am passionate about collaborating closely with product and design teams to deliver user-centric features that enhance the overall user experience.

At Amazon Music, I played a pivotal role in developing Maestro, the flagship AI playlist generator, which resulted in a significant 38% increase in playlist creation. My backend fluency in Node.js and Python (FastAPI) complements my frontend expertise, allowing me to implement robust microservices architecture. I take pride in mentoring peers and driving frontend best practices, contributing to the engineering growth of my teams.
