About

Backend Engineer with 4+ years of experience building scalable production systems using Node.js, Python, TypeScript, AWS, and distributed systems. Currently an SDE 2, owning production backend services across architecture, reliability, performance, and feature development. I’ve built asynchronous systems processing 13K reports/day, optimized DynamoDB workloads to reduce API latency by 75%, built Python-based OCR and document-processing systems handling ~1M cases/month, and developed AI/LLM applications using OpenAI APIs. My core interests are backend engineering, distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, APIs, databases, and AI-powered applications. I’m currently exploring Backend Engineer / Software Engineer opportunities where I can work on technically challenging, scalable systems.
