What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a role where I can build scalable backend systems, improve performance, and work on data-driven features in a collaborative, engineering-focused team.

I am a senior backend engineer focused on building scalable, reliable systems and improving user engagement through practical engineering improvements.

At 2Performant I led projects that increased platform time spent by 10% and refactored critical components to handle 100% more traffic, improving reliability and scalability.

Previously I delivered full-stack solutions at De’Longhi that cut operational inefficiencies by over 15% and contributed substantial production code to Take off labs’ World Handicap System, supporting millions of users.

I enjoy applied systems design, performance engineering and algorithmic projects — from pathfinding and compilers to reinforcement learning — and I bring hands-on experience with Ruby on Rails, Python, C/C++, JavaScript and modern backend tooling.
