Full-stack developer specializing in React/TypeScript, AI-driven solutions, and performance optimization.
What I'm looking for
I'm a passionate full-stack developer with extensive experience building and maintaining large-scale React and TypeScript applications, leading engineering teams, and delivering measurable performance and operational improvements. At PayPal I led teams that optimized invoicing and case-management experiences, reduced latency dramatically, and delivered Gen AI solutions and orchestration pipelines that sped up fraud and underwriting workflows.
I focus on developer productivity, performance engineering, and applied AIāfine-tuning domain-specific models, integrating agents, and pioneering production patterns like Python sidecars alongside SpringBoot services. I enjoy mentorship, cross-functional collaboration, and solving hard problems that reduce costs and accelerate business outcomes.
