About
I’m a Senior Software Engineer with over 13 years of experience building scalable backend services, full-stack applications, enterprise platforms, and production AI solutions. My expertise includes Python, Node.js, TypeScript, React, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Elasticsearch, AWS, Docker, and Kubernetes.
In my recent role at Elastic, I helped build an enterprise search and RAG platform covering 2.4 million documents, improving answer acceptance from 61% to 86%. I also developed AI-powered agentic workflows that automated 72% of routine case-preparation activities and contributed to quality improvements that reduced critical AI defects by 54%.
I enjoy solving complex engineering challenges, designing reliable architectures, improving system performance, and delivering products that create measurable business value.

Work experience· 4 roles
Owned enterprise search and applied generative AI delivery, building an access-aware RAG platform over 2.4M documents using Elasticsearch/OpenSearch hybrid retrieval, metadata filtering, reciprocal-rank fusion, semantic reranking, and grounded citations. Engineered governed LangGraph agentic workflows with 18 approved tools, explicit state, retries, resumability, permission controls, human approvals, and audited execution; integrated MCP-compatible services for controlled enterprise access and actions, automating 72% of routine case-preparation steps. Introduced AWS Bedrock Knowledge Bases and managed foundation models alongside OpenAI/Anthropic via a centralized model gateway with fallback, rate limiting, semantic caching, and quality-latency-cost routing. Built a 1,500-case regression framework covering retrieval relevance, groundedness, citation accuracy, completeness, policy compliance, prompt injection, and tool execution—reducing critical production AI defects by 54%. Delivered
Built secure knowledge search and document intelligence capabilities using Python with Elasticsearch/OpenSearch and NLP services processing 12+ million pages across enterprise repositories. Developed access-aware retrieval and classification/summarization foundations to support regulated knowledge work, including expert validation and review workflows. Created secure React/Next.js experiences for search, annotation, feedback, and expert review, improving successful document discovery by 31%. Implemented OAuth/OIDC, IAM/RBAC, access filters, secrets management, audit logging, and private-network controls; containerized and instrumented services with distributed tracing to reduce diagnosis time by 43%. Introduced transformer-based classification and retrieval evaluation during the later phase to enable production generative AI delivery.
Delivered analytics and text-processing applications with Python REST services, React dashboards, and Node.js integrations for classification, search, extraction, and reporting workflows. Built near-real-time ingestion and indexing pipelines with SQL/PostgreSQL/MongoDB and Elasticsearch-compatible services, including data-quality controls. Later automated API/UI/data-quality tests and moved toward containerized delivery to stabilize releases.
