What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative, product-focused team where I can lead backend and full-stack efforts, improve platform reliability, mentor engineers, and drive scalable SaaS features.

I am a seasoned Full Stack Developer with over 10 years of professional software engineering experience and 7+ years focused on Ruby on Rails. I design, build, and scale API-driven SaaS applications with a strong emphasis on reliability, performance, and security.

My work spans backend architecture, microservices, and frontend interfaces using React, TypeScript, and Vue.js, delivering accessible, responsive UIs and robust APIs. I have improved database response times, reduced onboarding time for integrations, and increased test coverage through CI/CD automation.

I have hands-on experience deploying and operating cloud infrastructure on AWS, GCP, and Heroku, using Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform, and I support observability with Datadog, ELK/Grafana, and structured logging. I participate in incident response and platform reliability work to maintain high uptime.

I mentor junior engineers, drive documentation and onboarding improvements, and collaborate closely with product, design, QA, and support teams to deliver user-centric features in Agile environments.
