About

I’m a Software Engineer II at Microsoft with 7+ years of experience building and improving cloud platforms, distributed systems, backend services, and engineering automation. At Microsoft, I work on Microsoft Copilot Studio, where I build platform capabilities, AI-powered automation, and scalable backend systems. My work has included eliminating 1.5M unnecessary backend API calls per day, improving P95 latency across 52% of platform APIs, and building AI-powered scheduling workflows using Copilot Studio, Power Automate, and Dataverse. Previously at Oracle, I worked on cloud infrastructure and Kafka-based distributed systems, including redesigning Kubernetes deployments that reduced service startup time from about 1 hour to 1 minute. I enjoy solving engineering problems where reliability, scale, performance, and automation intersect. My experience spans distributed systems, platform engineering, cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, Kafka, Azure, C#, Python, .NET, Dataverse, AI agents, and workflow automation. I’m particularly interested in Senior Software Engineer, Backend, Distributed Systems, Platform Engineering, Cloud Infrastructure, and AI Platform opportunities where I can own complex technical problems and turn them into scalable, reliable systems.
