About
Hi, I’m a software engineering professional with a focus on designing and scaling distributed systems across cloud and on‑prem environments. I’m passionate about platform reliability, developer enablement, and infrastructure automation to help teams move fast without sacrificing quality.
Most recently, I led cloud infrastructure engineering for Altruist Corp, building scalable AWS-based infrastructure, standardizing Terraform and CI/CD pipelines, and enhancing observability with Prometheus, Grafana, DataDog, and CloudWatch. I have a proven track record delivering high-traffic services and driving cross-functional initiatives to improve resilience, scalability, and operational efficiency.
