What I'm looking for

I seek backend/platform roles where I can improve deployment reliability, automate installs, and scale infrastructure while working in a collaborative, growth-oriented engineering team.

I am a backend-focused software engineer with strong experience in automating cluster install workflows, resolving critical production bugs, and improving test coverage. I have driven migrations and PoCs that streamlined deployment flows, improved test frameworks, and increased backend reliability across hyperconverged infrastructure products.

My background spans full backend ownership—from frontend inputs to automated deployment tasks—using Python, Ansible, Docker and related tooling. I take pride in measurable improvements such as raising test coverage from 40% to 70% and leading optimizations that removed heavy VM dependencies during node setup.
