What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a remote-first engineering team where I can own complex technical problems, contribute to architecture, and help build scalable products. I’m particularly interested in backend platforms, distributed systems, developer infrastructure, and products that solve meaningful problems. I’m open to Staff Engineer, Principal Engineer, and Software Architect roles.

I’m a Software Architect with 13+ years of experience building backend platforms, distributed systems, and cloud-native applications. Throughout my career, I’ve worked across the full product lifecycle—from designing systems and writing production code to leading architecture decisions and supporting products in production. My experience spans e-commerce, accounting, B2B platforms, and high-scale backend systems, with a strong focus on reliability, scalability, and engineering simplicity. I’ve designed microservice architectures, event-driven systems, payment and ledger platforms, vendor settlement systems, and APIs that support business-critical operations. I enjoy solving complex engineering problems, improving system architecture, mentoring engineers, and collaborating closely with product teams to deliver practical solutions. While my foundation is in backend and platform engineering, I’m comfortable taking ownership of products end-to-end and working across multiple parts of the technology stack when needed.

I’m looking for a remote-first Staff Engineer, Principal Engineer, or Software Architect role where I can contribute to technical strategy, build scalable platforms, and help engineering teams deliver high-quality software.
