What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build reliable cloud infrastructure and full-stack products, solve operational challenges through automation, and collaborate with teams that value ownership, mentoring, and continuous improvement.

At CAS / American Chemical Society, I build infrastructure monitoring systems across 100+ MarkLogic clusters. I developed a centralized Angular and Express.js dashboard and an AWS Lambda pipeline using Python, Prometheus, and CloudWatch that reduced on-call incident response time by 40%.

I also design reusable AWS infrastructure with Terraform, CloudFormation, and CI/CD, automate operations with Bash and cron jobs, and improved cluster efficiency by replacing API queries with automated CoRB jobs, cutting CPU utilization by 70%.

I’ve led a three-person team to launch a React and Node.js resource platform, built a React Native news app with 1,000+ first-month downloads, and create projects spanning full-stack platforms, GenAI recipe extraction, and machine-learning game bots.
