About

I’m a Senior / Lead Software Engineer with 7+ years of experience building and scaling production-grade applications across web and mobile platforms. I’ve led the development of systems in logistics, e-commerce, fintech, agritech, edtech, and call center environments — many actively running in production and on the Play Store. My focus is designing scalable backend architectures, reliable APIs, and cloud-native systems on AWS that support real business growth. I specialize in backend engineering, fullstack development, DevOps automation, and cloud infrastructure — ensuring applications are secure, performant, and built to scale. Beyond coding, I contribute to architectural decisions, system design, and engineering standards that enable teams to deliver with confidence. Open to Senior and Lead Software Engineer roles where ownership, architecture, and impact matter.
