• Led modernization of a core product dashboard, re-architecting the identity management system and reducing authentication infrastructure costs by 97% (~$42K annually).
• Designed and implemented production-grade AI systems, integrating machine learning models, AI agents, and MCP-based servers to solve complex real-world problems at scale.
• Built AI-driven automation workflows and a document classification & validation system that categorizes documents (approved, rejected, duplicate, morphed, or requiring review), accelerating packet completion and operational efficiency.
• Implemented human-in-the-loop AI pipelines, balancing automation with accuracy, compliance, and reliability for critical decision-making processes.
• Architected and evolved a scalable B2B & BK platform, leading backend system design and high-throughput APIs supporting complex business logic and AI-driven services.
• Established test automation strategy using Playwright, achieving ~80% functional coverage across regression, sanity, and smoke testing to improve release confidence.
• Performed performance and load testing using JMeter, identifying bottlenecks and guiding architectural optimizations for data and AI-intensive workloads.
• Drove engineering best practices, including spec-driven development to reduce ambiguity, align cross-functional teams, and accelerate high-quality delivery.
• Provided technical leadership across features and platforms, influencing architectural decisions, engineering standards, and long-term technical direction beyond individual contributions.
