About

Backend engineer currently building an AWS Lambda/FastAPI inventory recommendation system using a LangChain + GPT-4 RAG pipeline and MongoDB vector search; drove major cost optimization via Redis caching (60% reduction) while sustaining 10k+ daily requests under 2s latency. Previously deployed Node.js microservices on AWS OpenShift with Jenkins/Helm at UnitedHealth Group and led a zero-downtime monolith-to-microservices migration at Verizon, including RabbitMQ-based real-time messaging with DLQs and idempotency.
