About

I build backend systems and ML-enabled services that power production applications. My work focuses on API design, scalable microservices, data pipelines, and reliable inference/serving layers that meet business SLAs.

Core strengths include designing resilient FastAPI and Node.js services, integrating vector search (Pinecone) and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines with LangChain/LangGraph, and deploying inference and API workloads on Google Cloud (Cloud Run, Cloud Build, Artifact Registry, GCS).

Technical highlights:

  • Backend: FastAPI, Nest.js, TypeScript, Python
  • ML / AI infra: LangChain, LangGraph, RAG, Pinecone, embeddings, inference orchestration
  • Cloud & infra: Google Cloud Platform (VMs, Cloud Run, GCS, Cloud Build, Triggers), Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS (S3, EC2, Lambda, VPC)
  • DevOps & quality: CI/CD (Github Actions), automated testing, observability (logs/metrics/tracing), secure access controls

I enjoy mentoring engineers, improving engineering processes, and delivering measurable improvements in reliability and performance.
