Software Engineer building scalable healthcare and SaaS web platforms with APIs.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Software Engineer with experience delivering web platforms across healthcare, SaaS, and consulting environments. I build scalable APIs, data-driven backend services, and responsive front-end interfaces, with a focus on reliability and maintainable code.
In my recent role at PathGroup, I develop and maintain backend services in Python and Ruby for healthcare data processing workflows. I implemented RESTful APIs and background processing services to coordinate patient records and operational metrics, and I helped clinical teams use a React/Node.js dashboard backed by MongoDB.
At MiTek, I built scalable SaaS backend features in Python and Ruby and delivered real-time functionality using Node.js, Express, and MongoDB. I also expanded React capabilities to improve responsiveness and enable complex engineering dataset visualization, while working through Agile planning, code reviews, and structured testing.
Across Vanderbilt University and Adaptive Technology Consulting, I supported research applications by integrating external datasets, improving data pipelines, and enhancing web interfaces with JavaScript and React. I enjoy contributing across the full development lifecycle—from requirements translation and feature development to testing and deployment in distributed teams.
