About

Professional summary

I am a Senior Software Engineer with more than eight years of experience building, operating, and owning backend systems. My primary focus is Go-based microservices, API design, distributed service architecture, and production reliability.

I have extensive experience delivering consumer-facing platform features end-to-end, from service design and implementation through integration with web and mobile applications. I build REST APIs and backend services that enable scalable customer experiences and internal business workflows.

I have operated production workloads on AWS, including ECS Fargate, EC2, and RDS, with a strong focus on high availability, observability, incident response, and automation. I use monitoring and logging platforms such as Prometheus, Grafana, Kibana, Elastic APM, and PagerDuty to maintain reliable services.

My engineering background also includes Java, JavaEE, PHP, JavaScript, SQL, relational databases, infrastructure as code, CI/CD, and containerized deployments. I value clean code, sound design patterns, thorough testing, and maintainable software architecture.

I have led technical delivery as an acting team lead for an eight-person backend team while remaining hands-on as an individual contributor. I enjoy providing technical direction, coordinating delivery, and helping teams build effective and dependable systems.
