About

I’m a Senior Back-End Engineer with around a decade of experience designing and operating scalable distributed systems, especially for high-volume transaction and e-commerce workloads. I enjoy building reliable back-end services in Go, integrating them with gRPC/REST and GraphQL, and ensuring fast, consistent data access using tools like MongoDB and PostgreSQL.

I’ve deployed production systems on AWS using ECS and Kubernetes (with Docker), and I use Datadog to monitor health, performance, and issues in real time. I also work on workflow orchestration with Temporal, optimize database performance with indexing/caching, and support teams by mentoring engineers and improving service reliability through clean design and automated CI/CD.
