Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years of experience focused on AI-driven applications and scalable backend systems. In my most recent role, I built AI platforms using Python and modern frameworks, implementing RAG pipelines and vector-based search to deliver fast, intelligent responses. I specialize in modernizing legacy monolithic applications into event-driven microservices using Kubernetes, messaging systems, and Redis for high-performance data processing and caching. Strong background in designing reliable, cloud-native architectures on AWS and GCP, with a focus on scalability, low latency, and production-ready AI systems.

About me: Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years of experience building scalable, cloud-native systems across AWS, GCP and Azure. I specialize in microservices, distributed systems, and Kubernetes, with recent hands-on work in AI platforms, RAG pipelines, and LLM-powered applications. I enjoy working across backend, infrastructure, and system design to deliver reliable, production-ready solutions.

What I’m looking for: I’m currently looking for roles where I can work on modern, cloud-native or AI-driven platforms, especially systems that deal with real scalability challenges like distributed architectures, event-driven workflows, or high-throughput data pipelines. I’m drawn to environments where engineering decisions are thoughtful and practical, not overly bureaucratic, and where teams take ownership of what they build.

I also value teams that are collaborative, low-ego, and focused on continuous improvement, whether that’s refining architecture, improving developer experience, or shipping better products over time. Ideally, I’d like to be somewhere that balances strong technical challenges with a culture that actually supports engineers doing their best work.
