M.S. in Software Architecture and Engineering
Focused on system architecture, scalability, and software design patterns. Explored distributed systems, quality assurance, and best practices for enterprise development.
AWS Certified Solutions Architect with 17+ years designing and scaling enterprise SaaS systems. Practical insights on cloud architecture, system reliability, and production-grade software delivery.
Reviewing and redesigning systems for scalability, reliability, and maintainability. Experienced in identifying architectural debt in AI-generated codebases and creating pragmatic improvement roadmaps.
Hardening AI-built prototypes for real-world usage: security gaps, error handling, observability, rate limiting, and deployment practices that production actually demands.
Designing and auditing AWS infrastructure to eliminate waste and scale efficiently. Serverless, containers, managed services — matching the right tool to the actual workload, not the AI's default choice.
Finding and fixing the database and caching issues that AI tools consistently get wrong: missing indexes, N+1 queries, wrong consistency models, no cache invalidation strategy.
Setting up the deployment pipelines, monitoring, alerting, and logging that teams skip during the AI-assisted build phase — and that you'll desperately wish you had when things break.
Auditing and hardening API contracts, authentication flows, and third-party integrations. AI-generated integrations often work until they don't — retries, timeouts, and failure modes are rarely handled correctly.
