## 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\.
