Senior Backend & Platform Engineer
Backend depth.
Ownership beyond the code.
12+ years building and operating systems: enterprise payments, large-scale data platforms, and early-stage products. I connect architecture, hands-on delivery, and what happens on call.
A few examples from systems I helped build, ship, and keep running.
Seller analytics depended on reliable data from hundreds of external marketplaces.
I re-architected ingestion into event-driven services with automated validation and owned the observability stack. The platform processed 30+ TB a month; incident recovery went from hours to minutes.
Merchant integrations needed fixes across payment flows, browser behavior, and multiple SDK versions.
I resolved 50+ production issues, shipped payment instrumentation and browser support end-to-end, and backported test coverage to legacy SDK branches. This unblocked checkout flows and reduced escalations to the core SDK team.
Recurring on-call questions needed a reusable knowledge base across six SDK surfaces.
I built and deployed an agentic workflow connecting Slack, Jira, and Confluence. It classifies incident threads into tickets and records resolutions in a 55-article knowledge base, making previous investigations available to the next person on call.
A small startup needed an MVP and the engineering foundations to keep iterating.
I owned architecture and delivery while leading three engineers. Alongside the application, I built deployment pipelines and established testing, API documentation, and monitoring, giving the team a repeatable path from a change to production.
From a payment request to a controlled execution: independent policy checks, durable retries, an idempotent payment core, and double-entry accounting.
An open-source handbook for returning TypeScript developers, with explained exercises, searchable code, and practical examples in three languages.
Hands-on engineering.
A wider field of responsibility.
My work also includes making teams more effective. At HypeAuditor, I established the QA function, hired its lead, and defined the release process. At EasyCommerce, I worked across backend, data, QA, support, and DevOps to connect product needs with reliable delivery.
I’ve worked as a staff engineer and an engineering lead, and I stay close to the implementation. My scope includes turning product needs into technical plans, helping teams make decisions, and owning the reliability of what we ship.
