Senior Software Architect building scalable cloud-native AI applications for healthcare.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a Senior Software Architect with over 10 years of experience designing and developing scalable cloud-native applications. I focus on leveraging AI technologies—especially in the healthcare domain—while advocating for technical excellence and strong collaboration.
At AT&T Labs, I designed and developed cloud-native applications on AWS, focusing on scalability and performance optimization for healthcare staffing. I contributed production-quality code using AI technologies, helping improve deployment efficiency, and I actively participated in architecture reviews and technical discussions to evolve development standards.
I have a track record of building delivery pipelines that speed teams up. At Texas State Government (TCDD), I implemented CI/CD pipelines that streamlined deployment processes and significantly reduced time-to-market, while leading architecture and code reviews that reinforced technical standards.
I also bring a practical engineering mindset from prior roles at T-Mobile Center and Ericsson, where I engineered scalable systems, improved Agile team velocity, and used AWS to ensure application availability and resilience. I mentor junior engineers, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and enjoy turning requirements into clear technical documentation and architectural specifications.
