What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging role that leverages my expertise in .NET, Azure, and cloud services to build scalable enterprise applications and lead high-performing teams.

As a Senior Full Stack Engineer with over 9 years of experience, I specialize in developing enterprise-grade web and desktop applications across various industries, including government, education, healthcare, finance, and e-commerce. My expertise lies in full-stack development using .NET technologies, with a strong focus on SQL Server and Azure cloud services.

In my current role at Symantec, I have successfully led the migration of legacy .NET applications to .NET Core, improving performance and reducing response times by 25%. I have also designed and developed RESTful APIs using ASP.NET Core Web API, ensuring seamless integration with frontends and third-party services. My work has included automating API testing with Postman and integrating static code analysis with SonarQube to maintain high code quality.

Previously, at Trulia, I developed modules for a Single Page Application (SPA) website, coordinated junior developers, and modernized legacy systems from VB6 to VB.NET. I also integrated Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) services and performed extensive validation testing before UAT. My contributions led to improved system reliability and database performance.
