Senior Lead Software Engineer at HID

About

Senior Lead Engineer with 14+ years of experience designing and developing enterprise software solutions across cloud-native platforms, distributed systems, identity and security, and complex integrations. I bring 10+ years of hands-on C++ experience along with 4+ years of Node.js/TypeScript development, with recent experience designing and developing cloud-native solutions on AWS. At HID, I have led the design, development, and production stabilization of HID Origo Bridge, a hybrid identity management platform integrating on-premises services with cloud-native AWS components. The platform supports customer environments with up to 50,000 credentials per customer, and I have contributed to integrations with four PACS systems supporting identity synchronization and credential provisioning. My engineering experience includes: • Solution and software architecture • Distributed and fault-tolerant systems • Cloud-native and serverless architecture • Node.js / TypeScript backend development • C++ application and systems development • AWS Lambda, Step Functions, SQS, S3, DynamoDB, PostgreSQL, DocumentDB and Redis • REST APIs, MQTT and cloud-to-on-premises integration • Identity synchronization and credential provisioning • CI/CD, release management and production engineering I enjoy solving complex engineering problems, translating product and customer requirements into scalable technical solutions, and taking ownership from architecture and implementation through production delivery and stabilization. I have also worked closely with product, DevOps, pre-sales, business stakeholders and customers, while mentoring engineers and contributing to technical hiring. Areas of interest: Staff/Principal Engineering, Solution Architecture, Cloud-Native Engineering, Distributed Systems, Backend Engineering, C++ and Node.js/TypeScript.
