I build secure, pay-per-use serverless systems and full-stack web applications with AWS, React, and Next.js.
What I'm looking for
I build secure, event-driven serverless systems and full-stack applications using AWS, React, Next.js, and TypeScript. My work focuses on replacing always-on infrastructure with pay-per-use architectures.
For SentryNode, I designed a serverless fraud detection pipeline using API Gateway, SQS, Lambda, DynamoDB, and SNS, and presented its architecture in a live hackathon Q&A. For MediFind, I fixed 30+ infrastructure and backend defects, rebuilt JWT authorization across protected endpoints, and redesigned the frontend in Tailwind v4.
I'm an AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner and AmaliTech AWS re/Start graduate. I also built an AI-integrated DeFi capstone with React, Solidity smart contracts, and an LSTM financial prediction model.
