About

Professional summary

I am a Senior Software Engineer specializing in PHP/Laravel, React, Node.js, and Generative AI. I build and modernize mission-critical systems for finance, government, and healthcare organizations.

I have delivered measurable performance improvements, including reducing response times by up to 94% and transforming manual data retrieval processes that took hours or weeks into workflows completed in 1–6 seconds.

My back-end experience includes PHP, Laravel, Node.js, Express, Java, REST APIs, SQL, Redis, and legacy Zend Framework systems. I also build modern front-end interfaces with React, JavaScript, and TypeScript.

I am experienced in production delivery, code review, deployment risk validation, CI/CD, Docker-based environments, and technical coordination with internal teams and external vendors. My staged delivery practices have been associated with significantly fewer production rollbacks.

I have led full-stack modernization initiatives, API migrations, database optimization, caching implementations, real-time WebSocket features, and internal enterprise platforms. I have also served as an interim Tech Lead and Engineering Manager.

I am especially interested in applying Generative AI, RAG, LangChain, and LLMs to practical business problems, including natural-language data access and corporate knowledge systems.
