I'm a Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years of experience delivering enterprise-grade solutions across .NET, Python, Go, Node.js, and modern front-end frameworks.
I design, build, and scale cloud-native platforms on Azure, AWS, and GCP — bringing together microservices, event-driven systems, DevOps automation, and intelligent features powered by AI/ML and LLM-based search.
My engineering philosophy is simple:
“Write clean, observable, and scalable code that drives measurable business impact.”
I thrive at the intersection of architecture, automation, and innovation — mentoring teams, leading migrations, and modernizing legacy systems into resilient cloud ecosystems.
