Mid-Level Software Development Engineer specializing in distributed systems and event-driven architectures

Santa Clara, California4y exp

“Built and maintained an internal JavaScript/React real-time event monitoring UI used by multiple Goldman Sachs teams (e.g., Private Wealth Management and Bulk Trading Systems). Focused on scaling performance under hundreds of events/sec—using profiling, memoization, batching, and debouncing—and paired it with strong internal documentation and disciplined incident diagnosis via synthetic load testing and logs/metrics.”

“Full-stack product engineer who owned a live-events digital ticketing platform end-to-end, including blockchain-based ticket validation and high-traffic booking flows. Stands out for combining Angular/React frontend work with Java/Spring Boot backend architecture, plus strong production reliability practices around concurrency control, queues, observability, and UX optimization.”

“Backend engineer who replaced an Excel-heavy forecasting workflow with a secure, auditable FastAPI system (React UI + relational model + async workers), emphasizing deterministic processing, idempotency, and versioned ledger-style ingestion. Led a monolith-to-FastAPI migration at Bounteous using a strangler approach, feature-flagged incremental rollout, and data reconciliation/shadow-compare to protect integrity while scaling onboarding workflows.”

Executive engineering leader specializing in AI automation and enterprise transformation

Banks, OR23y exp

“Technology leader with deep accelerator and zero-to-one product experience across the Department of Defense, Fortune 100 enterprises, academia, and GovTech. Most notably, they built a seven-tier solution that generated over $10M in first-year savings and was adopted by 300+ DoD organizations, positioning them as a strong CTO-type operator for mission-driven startups and complex enterprises.”

“Frontend engineer at Mailchimp who leads end-to-end React/TypeScript features on the in-app homepage, including onboarding and campaign discovery components. Demonstrated measurable performance impact by cutting homepage LCP by ~2.5s and successfully shipped a major feature on an accelerated deadline using structured QA and staged rollout.”

“Software engineer with strong full-stack and platform experience (TypeScript/React/Node.js) who has built real-time analytics dashboards and microservices using RabbitMQ. Demonstrates production-minded decision-making under launch pressure (manual fallback for payment-impacting third-party API issues) and has delivered internal DevOps tooling that automates compliance checks via GitHub/Jira integrations.”

“Built and deployed a GPT-4-powered medical assistant for clinical staff to reduce time spent searching guidelines and EHR information, with a strong emphasis on safety and compliance. Uses strict RAG, confidence thresholds, and fallback behaviors to prevent hallucinations, and runs production-grade workflows orchestrated with LangChain/LangGraph plus Docker/Kubernetes/MLflow and monitoring for reliability and cost.”

“Cloud-native integration engineer (Oracle/OCI) with strong production deployment and incident-response experience, including API gateway rollouts, observability (Prometheus/Grafana), and multi-layer debugging for payments systems. Built Python/FastAPI microservices and automation for customer-specific reporting and data sync, and has delivered major performance gains (45 min to <10) plus reliability improvements (MTTD reduced 40%+) through monitoring, playbooks, and resilient integration patterns (streaming/queuing, retries, secure tokens, VPC peering).”

“Backend engineer on Morgan Stanley’s trade risk and compliance platform, building Java/Spring Boot microservices that validate equity and fixed-income trades at multi-million-events/day scale. Shipped an LLM-assisted trade exception analysis feature using RAG over internal policy documents and trade history, with production-grade guardrails (confidence thresholds, audit logs, human-in-the-loop) and measurable performance wins (~30–35% faster reporting) through PostgreSQL tuning and Redis caching.”

“Deloitte engineer who built and shipped AI-powered, Kafka-driven workflow automation for transportation/document processing, including LLM-based semantic search. Strong in production reliability (idempotency, offset management, retries), observability (Datadog/CloudWatch), and database performance tuning (PostgreSQL/Flyway), with measurable latency improvements.”

“Software engineer at Fidelity who led a digital-first transformation of life insurance/annuity sales by building a self-service customer flow (questionnaires, auto-contract generation, eSign) and abstracting complex internal eSign APIs adopted across 8+ teams. Also builds modern real-time web apps (Next.js/React/TypeScript, Supabase/Postgres, WebSockets) and operates services with CI/CD, performance testing, and observability (Jenkins, Datadog, Splunk, Grafana) on AWS EKS.”

“Full-stack engineer who built and supported production features in a productivity/task-tracking app using Next.js App Router + TypeScript (server components for initial render, client components for interactivity, API route handlers for mutations). Also designed and optimized Postgres data models/queries and implemented resilient, event-driven payment processing with idempotency, retries, audit logs, and strong testing/observability practices.”

“Cloud/platform engineer with hands-on ownership of AWS EKS Kubernetes platforms built and upgraded via Terraform, including AWS networking/security, EBS/EFS/S3 storage integration, and reliability validation through CloudWatch plus Prometheus/Grafana. Also has on-prem VMware/vSphere administration experience and day-to-day hybrid on-prem-to-AWS operations (VPN/Direct Connect), with examples of resolving pod instability from an application memory leak and fixing a production connectivity drop via routing/firewall troubleshooting.”
