Mid Software Engineer specializing in backend systems and AI-enabled platforms

California, USA4y exp

“Full-stack engineer with hands-on ownership of a support ticket intelligence platform, spanning React/TypeScript frontend work and backend API, PostgreSQL, Redis, and Docker-based deployment. They stand out for driving practical architecture and performance improvements in production, including moving heavy processing async and cutting response times from about 300ms to 150ms while improving reliability.”

“Backend/data engineer focused on production ML/LLM systems: built a real-time FastAPI inference API on Kubernetes with strong reliability patterns (timeouts, idempotent retries, centralized error handling). Delivered AWS platforms using EKS + Lambda with GitHub Actions/Helm CI/CD and built Glue-based ETL from S3/Kafka into Snowflake with schema evolution and data-quality controls; also modernized legacy analytics/recommendation workflows into Python services with safe, feature-flagged cutovers.”
