What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build AI-driven SaaS with strong LLM/NLP services, scalable distributed backends, and cloud infrastructure—where I can own architecture, model integration, and performance under real load.

I’m a Senior Software Engineer with over 8 years of experience building AI-driven SaaS platforms and cloud-native systems. I specialize in LLM applications, NLP pipelines, full stack development, and distributed backend systems—using Python, TypeScript, React, Node.js, and AWS. I focus on API design, model integration, cloud infrastructure, and scalable data systems.

At Bridge Partners, I designed LLM-powered services to process large-scale customer feedback, architected backends for AI inference workloads, and led frontend interfaces in React to make insights accessible. I implemented NLP pipelines with embeddings and transformers, deployed microservices on AWS with Docker and Kubernetes, and improved real-time performance with PostgreSQL query optimization and Redis caching. I’ve also delivered NLP-based pipelines and interactive AI dashboards at Viable Springfield, and built backend services and APIs with Python/Java, Node.js, Spring Boot, and AWS across earlier roles.
