What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a senior role where I can build scalable backend/data pipelines in Python/FastAPI on GCP, integrate LLMs with RAG/MCP, and deliver reliable automation—prioritizing performance, ownership, and real operational impact.

I’m a Senior Backend Engineer with 6+ years of experience designing scalable enterprise systems. I build backend system architecture and microservices using Python (Flask, FastAPI), with additional experience in Java and C/C++.

I specialize in AI/LLM integration, turning GenAI ideas into production-ready RAG pipelines and automated workflows. At Dassault Systèmes, I led NinjaOps from PoC to production—an ML-powered self-healing incident management platform that reduced manual intervention by 95% and achieved 100% service uptime with zero critical production incidents.

On the data side, I design and optimize data engineering & data pipelines for near real-time operations. I’ve built large-scale ETL pipelines, implemented ML-driven incident similarity detection, and improved troubleshooting effort by 95% by correlating logs, alerts, and incident data.

I’m driven by performance optimization, reliable automation, and strong ownership. I’ve earned recognition for re-architecting core platforms (“Out of the Box Thinker”), cross-functional collaboration (“Collaborator Award”), and technical excellence, including hackathon wins and multiple high-impact delivery ratings.
