Technical Lead and backend developer specializing in healthcare systems.
What I'm looking for
I am a Technical Lead and Backend Developer with over nine years of professional experience building scalable backend architectures, primarily for healthcare technology. I focus on designing resilient RESTful APIs, integrating complex healthcare systems, and ensuring HIPAA-compliant data handling.
At my current role I lead cross-functional teams in project planning, architecture, and delivery, and I actively mentor teammates to improve code quality and collaboration. I have driven measurable product outcomes, including a 30% increase in enrollment efficiency from an AI-driven insurance recommendation app and a 20% improvement in plan-match accuracy.
My hands-on work spans EHR migrations, automated EDI workflows that improved reimbursement accuracy and reconciliation speed by ~20%, and rules-based COVID-19 assessment tooling integrated with QuickSight for real-time analytics. I also built integrations such as a Salesforce-linked Slack notification system to streamline client management and billing.
Technically, I am proficient in Java, Kotlin, Python, Spring Boot and Reactive Spring, and have strong DevOps and cloud experience on AWS with Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines. I bring a practical, outcomes-oriented approach and a commitment to compliance, reliability, and team growth.
