I'm a Staff Engineer with over a decade of experience at the principal level, specializing in the complex puzzles others shy away from. My journey spans from game development and healthcare IT to government systems – giving me a unique perspective on what makes software truly maintainable and scalable.
What sets me apart? I've built custom static analysis tools that map out the hidden dependencies in your codebase, making the impossible task of decomposing monoliths systematic and predictable. Whether it's untangling a decade-old Java system, automating away hours of manual work, or diving deep into bytecode to solve interoperability challenges – I thrive on turning technical chaos into clean, efficient systems.
My approach is straightforward: give me a complex problem, and I'll deliver a working solution. I believe in clear weekly updates and milestone demos, not endless meetings. You'll work directly with someone who's been writing code for 17 years and still loves the craft.
Examples of transformations I've led across various industries
Led the transformation of a 10-year-old Java monolith serving 5M+ users daily into a modern microservices architecture. Implemented strangler fig pattern for zero-downtime migration while maintaining full feature parity.
Technologies: Java, Spring Boot, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, Redis
Rescued a failing payment processing system experiencing 30-second response times. Through systematic profiling, query optimization, and caching strategies, achieved sub-second performance for 98% of transactions.
Technologies: Python, PostgreSQL, Redis, DataDog, AWS
Built comprehensive CI/CD pipeline and internal tooling suite for a 50-person engineering team. Automated repetitive tasks, standardized development environments, and implemented quality gates that caught 85% of bugs before production.
Technologies: GitLab CI, Docker, Terraform, TypeScript, Go
