Enterprise Architect | Platform Engineering
I design and build high-performance, edge-native platforms that prioritize data ownership, scalability, and long-term flexibility.
My recent work focuses on reducing dependency on monolithic CMS platforms and brokerage-controlled systems by leveraging serverless and edge architectures.
A modern real estate platform designed to balance ownership and integration:
- Content, SEO, and direct lead capture are fully controlled
- MLS data is accessed through brokerage infrastructure where required
- Built to reduce reliance on third-party systems without sacrificing functionality
