What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that fosters innovation and offers opportunities for growth.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with extensive experience in leading teams and driving strategic initiatives to deliver scalable solutions. My journey in software engineering has equipped me with a robust skill set, particularly in PHP (Laravel), JavaScript, .NET, and GoLang, complemented by a strong foundation in DevOps practices across AWS and GCP.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led multiple high-impact projects, including the development of SOCi’s Local Pages product, which supports over 180,000 pages and handles more than 4 million daily requests. My role at ShineOn involved spearheading the migration to Shopify GraphQL and optimizing AWS infrastructure, showcasing my ability to enhance operational efficiency and drive innovation. I am passionate about leveraging technology to solve complex problems and create value for organizations.
