What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a full-stack or backend-focused engineering role where I can build scalable, customer-facing products and distributed systems. I value strong engineering practices, meaningful ownership, collaborative teams, and opportunities to solve complex integration, platform, and reliability challenges.

I’m a Software Engineer 2 with 5 years of full-stack experience building scalable enterprise integrations, distributed systems, and event-driven services. At Contentstack, I build and maintain Marketplace applications across DAM, search, e-commerce, and indexing platforms, helping enterprise customers connect their content workflows with products such as Bynder, Cloudinary, Algolia, Commercetools, and Salesforce Marketing Cloud.

My work spans the complete lifecycle—from technical solution design and proof of concepts to production delivery, reliability, and customer enablement. I architected AWS Lambda and SQS ingestion pipelines that process 30K+ webhook events daily, support 1,000+ batch actions per run, and reduced manual operations by approximately 80%. I have also developed reusable integration boilerplates that reduced delivery time for new applications from around one month to one week, and built a Node.js authentication service supporting 20+ applications and 400+ users.

I enjoy solving complex problems using TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, NestJS, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, and AWS. My interests include backend architecture, cloud-native systems, API design, authentication and identity (OAuth 2.0, JWT, SAML, OIDC, SCIM), developer tooling, and building reliable products that simplify difficult workflows for users and engineering teams.
