Principal backend engineer specializing in Golang, scalable microservices, and cloud-native systems.
What I'm looking for
I am a Principal/Senior Backend Engineer with over 10 years of experience building cloud-native, scalable backend systems using Golang, Python, Kubernetes, Docker, and GCP. I focus on designing microservices, ETL pipelines, and API-driven architectures that deliver reliable enterprise-grade applications.
I have a strong track record of performance and reliability improvements — including a 90% page load reduction and 50% downtime minimization — achieved through caching, protocol enhancements, and optimized ETL workflows. I lead incident management efforts, conduct RCA and post-mortems, and implement preventive measures to reduce operational risk.
As a technical leader I mentor and upskill engineers, run structured code reviews, and define onboarding and coding standards that improve delivery velocity and code quality. I have driven multi-platform integrations and feature ownership across healthcare, fintech, and telecom domains.
I seek to contribute to high-impact software solutions, optimize system performance, and scale teams through hands-on engineering leadership and pragmatic, data-driven approaches to system design and delivery.
