Throughout my career, I’ve consistently worked in high-impact environments — from global tech giants and financial institutions to fast-moving startups — always prioritizing clean code, test coverage, observability, and developer experience.Beyond the Code
I enjoy geeking out over system design debates, AI-assisted coding workflows (Claude is my current favorite “chill coworker” for clean answers), and occasionally dropping sarcastic one-liners about overthinking, sleep cycles, and the absurdity of modern prompt engineering.When I’m not shipping features or fighting production bugs, you’ll find me reflecting on life, memes, politics (with a healthy dose of skepticism), or just trying to fix my perpetually broken sleep schedule.Open toInteresting remote/backend opportunities (Java/Scala heavy preferred)
Collaborations on open-source or side projects
Chatting about system design, distributed systems, or why 80% of dev work is now just writing the perfect prompt 😄
Feel free to connect — let’s build something reliable (and maybe roast some bad code together).
