Backend engineer building production systems in Go, Python, Java, and TypeScript.
I care about the unglamorous parts — latency budgets, consistency edges, and what breaks at 10× traffic.

experience

Software Engineer — Credible Data · Aug 2025 – May 2026 · Boulder, CO
Built the Express/Node backend for an AI-native data-discovery platform (SSE streaming, Auth0/JWT gateway, custom MCP server). Tuned pools & indexes to cut production P95 by 60%. GCP + GitHub Actions with health-check rollbacks.

Software Engineer Intern — IntelleWings · Feb 2023 – Jun 2024 · FinTech
Owned a Spring Boot transaction-monitoring path at 100K+/mo, sub-200ms. Multi-tier Redis cache cut query latency 70%; Jenkins/Docker/K8s cut release cycles from 5 days → 3.
