Senior software engineer and tech lead with a background in web and cloud development.

I work mainly on fullstack web systems running in the cloud, and I spend a lot of my time balancing hands-on development with technical leadership.

As a tech lead, I focus on:

• Leading technical work across projects and teams
• Turning product requirements into clear technical plans
• Making and documenting architectural tradeoffs
• Keeping delivery predictable by reducing risk early
• Reviewing code and designs with long-term maintainability in mind
• Mentoring engineers and helping them grow in ownership and decision-making

I care about clarity, follow-through, and building systems teams can actually live with.

My hands-on background is primarily in:

• Designing and building web APIs and backend services
• Working with distributed systems and service-oriented architectures
• Supporting systems in production and dealing with real-world failure modes
• Developing and operating systems on AWS or other cloud platforms
• Integrating cloud services with application-level concerns

I’m comfortable moving between implementation, design, and operational discussions.

I’ve been building practical knowledge in application and cloud security to improve architectural decisions and reviews.

This includes:

• Common web application vulnerabilities
• Authentication and session handling
• Server-side and client-side security issues
• AWS security fundamentals (IAM, networking, threat modeling)

The intent is to design systems that are harder to break and easier to operate.

Current areas of practice:

• Web application security labs
• Cloud security scenarios
• DevSecOps fundamentals

In progress:

• AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate
• Burp Suite Certified Practitioner

• Java / Kotlin
• JavaScript / TypeScript
• REST APIs, distributed systems
• Amazon Web Services (AWS)
• CI/CD

I like working on teams that value ownership, steady delivery, and pragmatic engineering.
