About

With ~10 years of backend and distributed-systems engineering experience (currently at Amazon), I specialize in building scalable, high-throughput microservices using Java, Kotlin and AWS. I’m passionate about clean architecture, reliability, and efficient distributed systems. Over the years, I have: - Architected and implemented services handling millions of requests per day, reducing latency by up to 40%. - Driven performance and cost optimizations in large-scale backend systems. - Mentored peers and participated in code reviews to uphold high quality standards. Now looking for Senior-level / Staff-track backend roles where I can contribute deep technical expertise. Let’s connect if you’re building large infrastructure or backend systems and need someone who gets things done.
