About Me
I am a Senior Software Engineer and Systems Architect with 8+ years of experience building scalable backend platforms, intelligent data pipelines, and robust internal tooling. I specialize in bridging the gap between modern cloud architectures and complex legacy systems, ensuring high-availability infrastructure for data-driven businesses.
My engineering philosophy is built on operational velocity and risk management: I build the future while keeping current operations running flawlessly.
Recently, as a Lead Software Engineer in the manufacturing and e-commerce space, I architected a modern Internal Tools Platform (Node.js/Azure) to automate complex product configuration logic, while simultaneously managing technical debt and providing architectural oversight for a legacy C#/.NET ERP system. Prior to this, I owned end-to-end API architectures and high-volume data pipelines for AAA live-service ecosystems reaching millions of users.
Core Technical Competencies:
- Backend & Systems Architecture: Python (Flask), Node.js (TypeScript), C# / .NET Core, C++, REST API Orchestration, Microservices.
- Data Engineering & Integrations: SQL (PostgreSQL, Raw SQL, SQLAlchemy), custom ETL pipelines, ERP oversight, third-party API integrations (Braintree, OAuth).
- Cloud & DevOps: Microsoft Azure, AWS (S3/Lambda), Docker, CI/CD, Git, Linux environments.
- Technical Leadership: Agile/Scrum methodologies, Jira/Confluence workflow management, strict code reviews, pair-debugging, and mentoring engineering teams to hit critical delivery deadlines.
Whether I am designing headless data scripts for a manufacturing floor, launching highly monetized native applications, or leading a software team through an Agile sprint, my goal is always to ship secure, performant software that directly solves complex business problems.
