What I'm looking for

I seek roles building scalable, event-driven backend systems and full-stack applications, with opportunities to optimize performance, work on cloud-native architectures, and deliver user-focused features in collaborative teams.

I am a software engineer with 5+ years building full-stack web applications and scalable backend systems. I work across PHP MVC frameworks (notably Laravel), JavaScript, and SQL/NoSQL databases to deliver production-ready features.

I have delivered 30+ client-facing web apps, integrated Elasticsearch to cut P95 load times, and implemented RabbitMQ notifications, WebSocket streaming, AWS Lambda transcription, and Stripe payments to accelerate delivery cycles.

I built REST APIs and geofencing microservices, and developed a high-throughput GPS tracking service in Go that handled 1,000+ concurrent streams while reducing query latency significantly. I design event-driven services with retry and dead-letter handling to ensure reliability at scale.

I focus on query optimization, caching (Redis), and proper indexing to improve API response times and handle high load. I’m results-driven, pragmatic, and committed to shipping robust, maintainable systems that improve user engagement and operational performance.
