Available to hire
I’m a Software Architect and Senior Back-End Engineer with 12+ years building, scaling, and stabilizing distributed production systems. I lead from architecture through delivery—launching and recovering systems that outgrow their original designs across modern cloud and event-driven microservices.
I set technical direction, own hiring and mentoring, and guide small engineering teams through the decisions required to deliver reliable end-to-end product outcomes. I’m AWS Certified and comfortable taking on fractional technical leadership to drive execution and standardize engineering operations.
