About

I am a Technical enthusiast with over 6.5 years of experience specializing in high-performance distributed systems and AI-native engineering. My career is defined by building the "coordination layers" that transform complex business logic into scalable, automated workflows. Currently, I am focused on redefining the traditional software development lifecycle (SDLC) through Specification-Driven Development (SDD) and Context Engineering. By treating technical specifications as executable contracts and architecting "Just-in-Time" context pipelines for AI agents, I’ve successfully reduced PR review cycles by 40% and accelerated service setup times by 50% in high-growth environments. My Core Technical DNA: Distributed Systems: Specializing in Temporal workflows, Apache Kafka, and event-driven microservices processing 30,000+ TPM. AI-Native Workflows: Designing AI-driven quality gates, automated test generation patterns, and agentic orchestration frameworks. Full-Stack Architecture: Expert in Java (Spring Boot), TypeScript, Node.js/NestJS, and AWS cloud-native ecosystems. Beyond the code, I am a firm believer that "every line of code is a liability." I thrive in fast-paced startup environments where I can mentor and learn from engineering teams, establish high-quality architectural standards, and build intelligent "systems of work" that eliminate human glue-work.
