What I'm looking for

I seek a back-end or platform role where I can build scalable, resilient services, work with Go and distributed systems, and grow through cross-functional collaboration and ownership of production systems.

I am a back-end engineer focused on designing and building scalable services using Go, PostgreSQL, and modern distributed-system patterns such as CQRS, event-driven architectures, and microservices. I deliver production-ready systems with attention to concurrency, CI/CD, testing, and performance optimizations including indexing, partitioning, and caching with Redis.

I have contributed across the full software lifecycle at a unicorn startup, implementing RESTful APIs, JWT and OAuth authentication, gRPC/Protocol Buffers, containerized deployments, and automated pipelines. I pair strong technical depth with effective collaboration with product managers and stakeholders to translate requirements into reliable, maintainable systems.
