About

🧠 Software Engineer | Distributed Systems | Curious & Adaptive I'm a backend engineer passionate about building high-performance systems and deeply understanding how they behave under load. I currently lead and manage backend services that power $44M+ in annual revenue, ensuring speed, reliability, and observability at scale. 🔍 I love diving into system internals, optimising performance, and driving architecture modernisation. I believe the real magic happens when solid fundamentals meet intelligent tools — especially in today’s AI-assisted engineering world. 🧰 From building real-time geolocation platforms to AI-driven RAG solutions, I’ve delivered impact by owning projects end-to-end — from design to EKS deployment and ongoing monitoring via Grafana and OpenTelemetry. 🔄 I’ve successfully replaced legacy stacks like JBoss and Tapestry with modern Spring Boot microservices, introduced embedded web servers, and rolled out scalable CI/CD pipelines on Jenkins — all to speed up delivery and reduce operational complexity. 🚀 Curious by nature, I love building agentic workflows and experimenting with vector databases and LLMs in both production and side projects. 🔧 In my free time, I enjoy building interesting projects that help me explore new tools, systems, and unconventional ideas.
