Senior Software Engineer with 8+ years of experience designing and owning distributed systems across fintech, SaaS, and consumer products. Most recently at Pleo, where I led backend initiatives with end-to-end ownership in high-ambiguity, remote-first environments. Currently open to Senior/Staff Software Engineer, Lead Engineer, Product Engineer, and AI Engineer roles. I build for reliability and scale: event-driven architectures on Kafka, cloud-native services across AWS and GCP, Kubernetes at production scale, and both relational and NoSQL data stores. Over the past year, I’ve focused on AI-enabled backend systems - building LLM-backed pipelines, implementing safety guardrails for AI features, and creating internal automation tools. I care about making AI production-ready: observable, cost-efficient, and safe. I also lead technically - mentoring engineers, driving architectural decisions, and collaborating across product, design, and data teams.
