Junior Full-Stack/AI Engineer specializing in web platforms and LLM applications

Palo Alto, CA2y exp

“Backend engineer from FoodSupply.ai who built and evolved a scalable restaurant/supplier product and order management platform using Node.js and REST APIs. Implemented a hybrid MySQL+MongoDB data architecture, optimized performance with Redis/Prisma, and led a phased migration with feature flags and a temporary sync layer to maintain data consistency. Strong focus on production security (OAuth2, RBAC, row-level security, AWS IAM) and reliability practices (testing with Pytest, Docker/AWS pipelines).”

“Software engineer with hands-on production experience deploying Spring Boot services to AWS using Docker and Jenkins CI/CD, focused on stable releases, easy rollback, and performance improvements through monitoring/logging and query optimization. Has proven cross-layer troubleshooting skills (identified packet loss causing intermittent timeouts via network traces) and experience collaborating on-site with operators in industrial/IoT-style environments, including working alongside robotics/PLC teams.”

Staff/Lead Game Engineer specializing in gameplay systems and VR

Los Angeles, USA22y exp

“Unity gameplay programmer with hands-on multiplayer networking experience (Photon Fusion, Mirror, SmartFox, Unity networking), including client-side prediction and rollback to smooth networked movement under lag/packet loss. Recently improved a fast-paced 2D platformer’s feel by adding momentum/velocity “gears,” validated through internal cohorts and volunteer/friends-and-family playtests. Comfortable in both startup and large-company environments and currently seeking a high-impact, intensive project.”

“Frontend-leaning full-stack engineer who owned end-to-end delivery for a high-traffic e-commerce web app (millions of monthly users), spanning UI enhancements, performance work, and third-party recommendation API integrations. Built a NestJS microservice integrated with Shopify to tag products (e.g., low stock/sale) and used queuing to handle high-volume order processing, plus created an internal CI/GitHub tool to surface test failures quickly.”

“Software engineering capstone contributor who helped kickstart an ambiguous, real-client project ("The Virtual Cowboy") by designing the initial relational database and CRUD foundation, then prioritized and shipped simulation/event functionality that satisfied the client. Also building a personal full-stack Book Notes web app (Node/Express/Postgres) with Google OAuth via Passport and a books API ingestion flow focused on data quality and reliability; has deployment experience with Heroku and PythonAnywhere and is ramping up on AWS.”
