About

Software Development Engineer at Amazon with expertise in Java, AWS, and scalable system design. Built and enhanced the technology powering the e-commerce experience for Heavy-Bulky products (TVs, treadmills, furniture) and Services (assembly, installation, house cleaning) as part of the Heavy-Bulky and Services organization. I have led key initiatives that improved checkout efficiency, reduced service failures, and optimized system performance. Notable contributions include reducing time to checkout by 74 seconds through a Perl-to-Java migration, developing a federated architecture for delivery selection which helped 8+ Delivery Experience programs(e.g., Amazon Fresh, Amazon Business, Amazon Day, SubSameDay, Pickup), and automating appointment scheduling systems to cut missed appointments by 64%. I am passionate about building scalable solutions, solving challenging problems, mentoring engineers, and driving innovation in e-commerce and cloud-based architectures.
