What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can architect secure, scalable systems, improve performance end-to-end, and lead developers—partnering on modern DevOps, testing, and developer experience with a strong engineering culture.

I’m a Software Architect with 8+ years of experience building secure, scalable applications and leading development teams. I specialize in system architecture, performance optimization, developer tooling, and open-source contributions.

I’ve architected solutions that serve 5k+ users with sub-10ms response times, and I’ve driven major improvements across infrastructure, security, and developer experience. From SOC-2 compliance initiatives to faster build pipelines, I focus on practical execution—CI/CD, release management, and hardening critical services.

Most recently, I led teams and ownership across DevOps operations for an Electron-based application, delivering performance improvements, security patches, and community-driven product enhancements. Earlier, I improved build times by 60% with ESBuild, built microservices with Fastify/Kafka/Redis, and reduced Redis search latency from 8 seconds to 8 milliseconds.
