About

With 6+ years of experience as a Software Engineer, I specialize in building robust backend systems using cloud. I have a strong command of C# and the .NET framework for enterprise solutions, as well as Python for automation and data-intensive tasks on AWS (EC2, S3, Lambda). My background includes modernizing legacy systems, optimizing database performance with SQL and PL/SQL, and developing REST APIs. I'm also passionate about the intersection of software and machine learning, with featured research in computer vision using PyTorch and OpenCV. I am actively seeking a full-time Software Engineer role focused on backend or cloud development where I can contribute to building impactful products.
