Software Engineer II at AlphaSense with 3+ years of experience building scalable backend and data-driven systems. I specialize in designing high-performance APIs and microservices using Python, Django/DRF, FastAPI, Node.js, and SQL. Hands-on experience with event-driven architectures, distributed workers, and automated data pipelines using Kafka, Redis, PySpark, and ETL frameworks. Strong exposure to cloud-native development and deployment across AWS and Azure, leveraging Docker, Kubernetes, Git/GitHub, and GitLab. Previously worked across healthcare and supply-chain domains, focusing on data integrity, compliance, scalability, and performance optimization. I enjoy helping engineers design robust systems, crack backend/data interviews, and transition into scalable, production-grade architectures.
