- Built and owned production Python backends with clean layering (router/service/data access) and standardized error handling
- API accuracy and data quality practices (Pydantic schema validation, reconciliation checks, edge-case and stress testing)
- Performance tuning across stack (Athena query optimization, pre-aggregation, Kubernetes scaling, DB indexing/joins/connection pooling) including ~18% latency reduction in prod
- Designed scalable Postgres schemas for healthcare claims workflows (history tables, composite/partial indexes) and iterated using production query analysis (slow logs, EXPLAIN ANALYZE)
- Delivered polished React + TypeScript dashboards with strong UX (loading/error states, formatting) and robust data fetching (async hooks, memoization, request cancellation)
