I'm John T Paz, a senior software engineer with 10+ years focused on backend design, distributed systems, microservices, and high-throughput backend services. I specialize in Python, Golang, Java, and TypeScript across real-time data platforms, e-commerce APIs, and health tech infrastructures. I enjoy building scalable, cloud-native systems, writing robust APIs (REST/gRPC), and driving observable, maintainable architectures. I've led cloud-native platforms on AWS and GCP, built resilient CI/CD pipelines, and mentored teams while collaborating with product, design, and SREs to deliver features in fast-paced and regulated environments (HIPAA, PCI). I’m passionate about engineering excellence, security, and delivering reliable systems that scale with user demand.
