What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, encourages collaboration, and offers opportunities for professional growth in a dynamic environment.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with over 10 years of experience in developing and optimizing solutions across various industries, including finance, healthcare, and software agencies. I have a proven track record of leading high-performance applications and driving product improvements in dynamic startup ecosystems. My expertise lies in Java, C#, Python, TypeScript, and distributed computing, where I excel in real-time analytics and large-scale system design.

In my current role at Haystack, I designed and developed backend microservices for a zero-trust security search and audit layer, significantly improving system responsiveness and enhancing compliance posture. My previous experience includes delivering a cyber analytics platform that streamlined operations for federal threat intelligence and implementing modular microservices that improved uptime and service isolation. I am dedicated to writing maintainable code and delivering user-focused solutions while collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams.
