What I'm looking for

I seek roles building AI-enabled web services and automation in collaborative, mission-driven teams that value scalability, observability, and human-centered design.

I am a full-stack software engineer who builds AI-enabled web applications and automation pipelines that improve operational efficiency and user experience. I have designed and deployed prototypes and production services using React, Next.js, Python, TypeScript, Java (Vert.x, Spring Boot), and cloud-native tooling to deliver measurable reliability and transparency improvements.

At enterprise-scale organizations I have implemented observability, CI/CD, and data pipelines, partnered with SRE teams to reduce incident resolution time, and experimented with SageMaker and generative AI to enable predictive analytics and intelligent automation. I prioritize human-centered, accessible solutions, code quality, and maintainable architectures aligned with public-good missions.
