What I Do

Three things I do well

Backend Engineering

Reactive microservices with Spring WebFlux. High-throughput APIs. Authentication systems (SAML, OIDC, Cognito). Built for production scale.

Cloud & AWS

Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, Cognito, EventBridge, CloudWatch, S3, CloudFront. AWS SAA certified. Infrastructure as code with Terraform.

System Design

URL shorteners, auth architectures, serverless pipelines. I document architectural decisions — my URL shortener article has been widely read on LinkedIn.

Let's talk

Open to opportunities.

I'm selectively exploring senior engineering roles at product-first companies. If you're building something interesting, let's talk.
