Redesigned system architecture to support a multi-tenant model serving 1,200 tenants, improving resource efficiency by 25%.  Spearheaded migration of NGRA-APP Java Spring APIs from Redshift to BigQuery, redesigning schema and query patterns for large-scale analytical workloads.  Leveraged GitHub Copilot and Claude Code across Java, Python, and SQL stacks to automate test generation, vulnerability remediation, and complex debugging, driving a 60%+ improvement in developer velocity while maintaining strict production code quality standards.  Designed and optimized complex SQL/PostgreSQL queries and schema structures supporting the multi-tenant model, cutting average query latency.  Built streaming and batch data pipelines using Apache Kafka and Apache Beam on Google Cloud Dataflow to process real-time messages into BigQuery.  Built a proactive Datadog/CloudWatch observability framework across microservices, cutting incident detection time from hours to under 5 minutes.  Led architecture and migration planning for legacy Connect4 Django services, reducing infrastructure costs by 37% while improving maintainability.  Built a vector-indexed RAG pipeline exposed through an MCP server tool interface, enabling Claude Code to query architectural documentation and auto-generate compliant migration code.
