Senior C#/.NET backend engineer with 11+ years of experience building and operating production systems across ASP.NET Core APIs, microservices, event-driven workloads, and Azure distributed architectures. I own work end-to-end—from discovery and design to implementation, testing, deployment, monitoring, and production support. I’m comfortable in regulated, transactional domains (payments, accounting, tax reporting, document workflows) and I focus on reliability, observability, and maintainable delivery. I collaborate closely with product, frontend, QA, DevOps, and implementation teams to ship features that work in the real world.
