About

I’m a Full-Stack Software Engineer who enjoys building fast, reliable products end-to-end — from backend systems and APIs to clean, intuitive user interfaces. I’ve worked on real-time systems, internal platforms, and automation tools that solve practical problems at scale. I like environments where I can own features completely, move quickly, and ship things that actually get used. Some things I’ve built: A real-time payments dashboard using Kafka, Debezium (CDC), Elasticsearch, and Angular — focused on speed, search, and usability Automation workflows that reduced release and deployment prep from hours to minutes, improving developer velocity CLI tools that simplified complex tenant migrations across databases, AWS infrastructure, configs, and secrets Serverless data migration pipelines using AWS Lambda and Node.js Full-stack applications with strong emphasis on product sense and UI/UX, recognized in internal hackathons I’m comfortable working across the stack with: Java, Spring Boot, Node.js, Angular, React, Kafka, AWS, PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, Redis What I care about: Shipping simple, scalable solutions to real problems Writing clean, maintainable code Improving developer workflows through tooling and automation Learning deeply about system design and distributed systems
