What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative, cross-functional engineering role where I can lead technical initiatives, mentor engineers, and build scalable, secure cloud-native systems with clear measurable impact.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with over 10 years building full‑stack applications and cloud-native systems using React, Node.js, Python/Django, and modern DevOps practices. I deliver production-ready software that meets business objectives and improves user experience.

I've led teams and projects across healthcare, insurance, and retail domains—architecting microservices, migratings monoliths to event-driven systems, and optimizing CI/CD and cloud infrastructure on AWS and GCP. My work has improved performance, reliability, and developer productivity through pragmatic engineering and strong technical leadership.

I value collaborative, cross-functional teams, clean maintainable code, and security-first practices. I mentor engineers, champion DevSecOps, and focus on measurable outcomes such as reduced latency, faster deployments, and higher user engagement.
