“Backend/data engineer with production experience building Python FastAPI services and AWS-native data pipelines. Has delivered containerized and serverless workloads (ECS/EKS/Lambda) with Terraform-based IaC, strong reliability patterns (JWT/RBAC, retries/circuit breakers, observability), and AWS Glue ETL into S3/Redshift. Demonstrated measurable SQL performance wins (40–50s to <4s) and owned real pipeline incidents through detection, mitigation, and prevention.”

“AI Backend Engineer in MetLife’s claims technology group who built and deployed a production LLM-based decision support system that helps claim adjusters quickly find relevant policy rules from long PDFs and historical notes. Designed it as multiple production-grade services with retrieval-first guardrails, continuous validation, and Airflow-orchestrated pipelines for ingestion, embeddings, and vector index updates to keep the system reliable as policies and data evolve.”

“Built and owned end-to-end ordering and inventory/order management systems for a wholesale distributor, delivering an MVP quickly and iterating based on direct observation of daily users. Experienced with TypeScript/React + Node.js layered architectures and microservices using RabbitMQ, including real-world scaling issues (duplicates, backpressure) and observability practices (correlation IDs, structured logging).”

“Front-end engineer with experience at Optum and Wells Fargo maintaining internal React/Angular component libraries and design-system-aligned UI modules used across multiple apps. Known for stabilizing shared libraries via semantic versioning, Jest test automation, and high-quality documentation, plus measurable performance wins (≈40% faster dashboard loads) through profiling-driven React and API optimizations.”

“Full-stack Java developer (~4 years) who built a telecom asset management system end-to-end with React and Spring Boot, and led/participated heavily in migrating it from a monolith to Spring Cloud-based microservices. Experienced with high-volume, data-driven workloads using Kafka (partitioning, batching, resilient consumers) and production observability via centralized logging with ELK and Splunk.”

“JavaScript full-stack engineer with experience at EY building secure, cloud-ready React/Node.js applications on AWS and currently at startup Juego Juegos owning the AWS backend and CI/CD via AWS Amplify. Demonstrated impact through performance tuning of a React analytics dashboard (reduced initial load time ~20%) and resolving real payment failures by debugging Stripe 3DS flows and updating AWS Lambda plus frontend error handling.”
