About

Backend/full-stack engineer (Amazon experience) who built an AWS-based integration testing platform using Flask, ECS, Docker, and CloudWatch—cutting 1000+ test cases from ~5 hours to ~30 minutes while improving log visibility for non-engineering users. Also led a zero-downtime EU region migration with rigorous ORR testing, and built a Kinesis/Firehose/S3 + Glue/Spark replay mechanism for resilient data recovery. Side project: reproducible, cost-efficient LLM hosting platform on EKS using CDK and Karpenter for scale-to-zero.
