Key Strengths

  • Built and operated production FastAPI microservice on GCP (Cloud Run) with Postgres/BigQuery/Redis
  • Implemented auth and reliability patterns (JWT/OAuth, RBAC, timeouts, retries with exponential backoff, centralized error handling)
  • AWS serverless + container architecture delivery (Lambda + ECS Fargate) with Terraform and GitHub Actions CI/CD
  • Designed AWS Glue ETL into S3 data lake and Redshift with schema discovery, versioning, and data quality checks
  • Modernized legacy SAS workflows into Python microservices and SQL pipelines using parallel runs and automated reconciliation tests
  • SQL performance optimization: reduced monthly reporting query runtime from 20+ minutes to under 2 minutes (indexes, partitioning, CTE refactor)
  • Owned data pipeline incident response: detected schema-change data drops via monitoring, replayed partitions/backfilled, added contract tests and stronger validation
