About

Professional summary

I am a Full Stack Software Engineer with around five years of experience building AI-powered applications and modern web interfaces for enterprise SaaS, financial, utility, and product-information platforms.

I specialize in React.js, Next.js, TypeScript, Python, Java, FastAPI, Spring Boot, and REST API development. I have delivered end-to-end features spanning frontend architecture, backend services, database migrations, third-party integrations, and CI/CD automation.

I have hands-on experience applying generative AI technologies, including OpenAI APIs, retrieval-augmented generation, semantic search, embeddings, vector retrieval, and prompt engineering. I built a hackathon-winning AI document assistant that supports natural-language querying of unstructured PDF content.

I have worked on high-volume accounting systems, analytics integrations, customer support portals, 3D visualization products, and secure multi-tenant platforms. My work has included performance optimization, authentication and authorization, role-based workflows, data security controls, and fault-tolerant API integrations.

I use AI-assisted development workflows, including Claude Code, to accelerate delivery, refactoring, debugging, and implementation across full-stack codebases. I am comfortable collaborating across product, engineering, and operational teams to build reliable, scalable software.

Software Engineer Persistent Systems

Architected customer and internal support portals using React and Next.js with Oracle APEX and PL/SQL backends. Migrated a multi-tenant financial accounting platform across banking, insurance, IFRS 17, and Part 7 Transfer product lines from FreeMarker templates to component-based Vue.js, while contributing Spring Boot logic and database migration scripts.

Optimized PostgreSQL and MySQL accounting queries by approximately 30% through indexing and migration changes. Delivered secure, fault-tolerant integrations with VertexOne, TransUnion, Twilio, and PowerToChoose; built a SOAP-to-REST JSON transformation layer, automated publishing workflows, implemented graceful credit-check failure handling, and enforced Vault-managed secrets, TLS, role-based workflows, and data-security controls.

Software Engineer insightsoftware

Modernized a PIM platform by incrementally migrating legacy jQuery screens to React.js while maintaining the existing application, improving load times by 35% on migrated data-heavy screens. Built reusable component libraries, validation-driven forms, and standardized API contracts across numerous frontend and backend endpoints.

Integrated Logi Analytics dashboards into the React application using iframe embedding and Elasticsearch reporting data. Built authentication and transformation APIs, implemented token refresh behavior and ACL permissions, and streamlined TC, RC, and GA deployment pipelines with Azure DevOps for Java microservices deployed to Azure virtual machines.

Software Engineer Govise Technologies (now CLO Virtual Fashion)

Built browser-based interactive 3D garment visualization features using three.js, including rotation and inspection capabilities that enabled design teams to review garment models digitally rather than relying on physical samples.

Developed backend REST API functionality using Java and MySQL, with query optimization and Elasticsearch indexing to improve retrieval performance. Helped enable earlier product design reviews and reduced design-cycle time by approximately 20-25%.
