I’m looking to lead full-stack initiatives where I can modernize legacy systems, optimize performance with AI-assisted tooling, and own AWS-backed, API-first architectures that improve real-world operations.

Lead full-stack engineer building AI-native systems for high-scale dispatch.
What I'm looking for
I’m a full stack engineer who thinks in systems and builds with AI as a native tool. I’ve spent 9+ years as a lead engineer on a production dispatch platform, owning system design and execution across database, APIs, AWS infrastructure, and CI/CD.
As Lead Full Stack Developer at Central Valley Auto Transport, I led a production dispatch system serving 24 staff and 60+ drivers processing 500,000+ vehicle transfers. I migrated the database to a remote high-performance server, cutting response times by 50% and eliminating daily dispatch bottlenecks, and I work closely with dispatchers to translate operational bottlenecks into technical solutions.
I also strengthen reliability and security—detecting and responding to a live AWS IAM credential compromise and implementing CloudTrail monitoring. From AI-audited query optimization (up to 10x endpoint improvements) to incremental AngularJS/React modernization and AWS Lambda orchestration (for improved separation of concerns), I deliver measurable outcomes while keeping production systems running smoothly.
