Skills & Tools

Architecture & Strategy

I love designing systems that scale to millions of users. Event-driven architectures, CQRS, domain-driven design, multi-region deployments, and architecture decision records (ADRs) for every big decision, because context is key.

Modern Engineering Excellence

Full-stack polyglot who thrives across TypeScript/Python/Java backends, React, Next.js & native frontends, and APIs of all kinds. I'm obsessed with developer experience and building in a way that makes teams faster.

Cloud-Native & Platform Engineering

Deep in the cloud with experience in GKE & EKS, Lambda, PaaS, and CloudFront. Kubernetes orchestration, service mesh magic with Istio, and infrastructure-as-code that actually works. I architect for cost efficiency without sacrificing reliability and performance.

Distributed Systems at Scale

Building systems that never sleep and can tolerate the rare failure. Message queues, circuit breakers, saga patterns, zero-downtime deployments, CAP/PACELC trade-offs. Observability isn't an afterthought, it's how you know you're winning.
