Builds configurable Python services to deliver customer-specific behavior without destabilizing the core codebase.”

“Software engineer with demonstrated production performance wins (37% latency reduction) through SQL optimization, backend API redesign, and disciplined rollout practices (staging, feature flags). Experienced debugging distributed pipeline issues across infrastructure layers (memory pressure and network timeouts) and building AWS-based systems (Lambda + RDS) to handle request spikes, including work on a business-focused chatbot.”

“Backend Python engineer who owned a real-time manufacturing insights streaming service, building FastAPI async microservices with Kafka-style queue buffering, batching/backpressure, and a low-latency snapshot store.
