What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote Platform, Backend, or SRE roles at Series B/C companies or lean startups, where I can build and operate distributed Go systems on GCP, improve reliability, and ship production AI infrastructure.

At Ascender, I built GCP microservices, automated LLM compute and VM lifecycles to reduce infrastructure costs by 40%, and delivered a production RAG sales agent. I also designed an ERP system, migrated CRM data and integrations, and helped grow the engineering team from 3 to 8.

Previously at BRLab / Metaratings, I supported 30+ microservices handling peak loads of 80K+ RPS, doubled throughput through refactoring, and shortened testing from 16 to 2 hours with automated end-to-end testing and Prometheus/Grafana metrics.

I bring hands-on information security and SecDevOps experience alongside backend, platform, and full-stack delivery. I’ve shipped 10+ startup MVPs, payment integrations, and secure Linux-based infrastructure.
