What I'm looking for

I seek backend/cloud roles where I can build resilient, scalable systems, solve distributed-systems challenges, and drive operational excellence in collaborative teams.

I am a senior Node.js developer with strong expertise in building scalable, cloud-native backend systems for insurance, Web3, and real-time applications. I design and implement fault-tolerant architectures using AWS serverless components, microservices patterns, and event-driven integrations that improve reliability and operational efficiency.

My recent work includes implementing serverless document generation and high-throughput reporting pipelines at scale, developing state-machine-driven underwriting services, and engineering distributed transaction orchestration using saga patterns. I have a track record of reducing MTTR, eliminating memory bottlenecks, and ensuring reliable delivery across critical production lifecycles.

I bring hands-on experience with TypeScript, NestJS, Node.js, Redis, PostgreSQL, WebSockets, and Docker, and I enjoy solving complex distributed-systems problems while enabling teams with robust observability and resilient engineering practices.
