Senior software engineer specializing in scalable cloud-native architectures.
What I'm looking for
I am a senior software engineer and technical lead with extensive experience building scalable, cloud-native systems for healthcare and commercial platforms. I specialize in designing microservice architectures, event-driven workflows, and secure API integrations that meet rigorous compliance needs.
At NTT Data I led backend and frontend efforts to modernize a HIPAA-compliant care navigation platform, refactoring legacy UIs into modular micro-frontends, implementing WebSocket real-time updates, and migrating services to Kubernetes with auto-scaling and blue-green deployments. I designed CQRS-based services, event-driven Kafka pipelines, and integrated payer and EHR systems using HL7 FHIR.
Previously at Aetna CVS Health I architected a clinical reference data platform, improving performance with caching and query optimization, building Elasticsearch-based search, and adding AI-enhanced discovery. I implemented event-driven processing with Kafka and Google Pub/Sub, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud automation to create reliable, maintainable platforms.
I bring strong cross-functional leadership, having led an engineering team at a CRE startup to deliver multi-tenant routing, GraphQL integrations, and Storybook-driven UI collaboration. I focus on secure, performant systems, pragmatic automation, and clear communication between product, design and engineering.
