What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles building scalable, secure cloud-native SaaS with strong CI/CD, AI/ML integration, and cross-functional collaboration opportunities.

I am a seasoned Full Stack Engineer with over a decade building robust SaaS platforms and cloud-native applications across fintech, edtech, and healthcare. I focus on secure, scalable architectures and have deep experience with microservices, API development, and DevOps practices.

My work includes integrating AI/ML pipelines into production, architecting high-performance CMS and LMS platforms, and optimizing systems for high concurrency and global performance. I have driven measurable outcomes such as increased user engagement, faster publishing cycles, and significant latency reductions.

I collaborate across teams to deliver zero-downtime CI/CD, enforce security and compliance (including HIPAA), and mentor teams through migrations from monoliths to microservices. I seek roles where I can continue to deliver reliable, performant systems and leverage AI integrations to improve product outcomes.
