I'm a multi-skilled software engineer who enjoys working across the stack — backend, cloud, frontend, and AI. I'm open to work and to collaborating on projects in just about any tech stack, so if you're building something interesting, reach out.

🤖 Currently working on:

• AI Agents & Multi-Agent (Sub-Agent) systems — designing agentic workflows and orchestration
• MCP (Model Context Protocol) — building servers & tooling that connect LLMs to real systems
• Deep Research workflows — LLM integrations for research, retrieval, and synthesis

Highlights from 14+ years of shipping:

• 🛰️ Architected serverless microservices on AWS (Lambda, CDK, DynamoDB, S3 + CloudFront) powering 1.6M+ monthly transactions at 99.99% uptime
• ⚡ Cut API response times by 65% and cloud spend by $70K+/month through Redis caching, CDN strategy, and architecture refinement
• 🛡️ Built an idempotency framework for billing APIs — zero duplicate charges across millions of transactions
• 🚀 Frontend performance too: Lighthouse 68 → 94, bundle size -47%, TTI -52%
