What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Software Engineer with over 8 years of experience specializing in scalable backend infrastructure and distributed systems, particularly for enterprise e-commerce and fintech platforms.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led full-stack development projects, including the design of microservices architectures and the implementation of machine learning models. At Amazon Web Services, I drove significant revenue growth and improved operational efficiency through innovative solutions, such as real-time data pipelines and responsive frontend dashboards. My experience at Stripe further solidified my capabilities in financial technology, where I developed core payment processing infrastructure and optimized transaction pipelines, resulting in substantial revenue increases.
