I also earned multiple certifications in C++, Python, Java, and AWS, demonstrating my proficiency and interest in these technologies. I am a vivid learner who enjoys solving challenging problems and working in a collaborative environment. My goal is to leverage my knowledge and experience to create innovative and scalable solutions that benefit both the users and the company.

At Blink Health, I led the end-to-end migration of the order search system to AWS OpenSearch, leveraging DMS, Kinesis, and transformation Lambdas to enable near real-time indexing of 1M+ order records, reducing query latency by 40%. I also implemented a unified cloud printing pipeline for orders using a configuration-driven approach with bounded polling and one-click PDF fallback, which reduced agent clicks by 90% and improved package shipment throughput by 95%. Additionally, I modernized RxOS Queues by migrating legacy UIs to a reusable design system, standardizing components such as filters, tables, pagination, CTAs, and status badges, significantly improving UX consistency, maintainability, and overall developer productivity.
