I build cloud-native healthcare integrations and scalable Go backend systems.
What I'm looking for
At McKesson, I build Go-based FHIR integration services that transform HL7 v2.x clinical messages into FHIR R4 resources, improving interoperability and accelerating partner onboarding.
I've developed concurrent microservices, gRPC and REST APIs, Kubernetes-native tooling on Amazon EKS, and event-driven integrations using Kafka, Kinesis, SNS, SQS, PostgreSQL, and Redis. I also improve throughput and latency through profiling, GC tuning, benchmarking, and resilient failure-handling patterns.
Previously at Cerner, I extended Millennium clinical workflows through Go services, Angular components, React and Redux interfaces, and HIPAA-compliant backend enhancements.
My earlier work at Emerus included HL7 interfaces in Mirth Connect, integration workflows connecting Epic, Cerner, radiology, and internal systems, plus operational dashboards and analytics tools for micro-hospital environments.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
