As a Principal Software Development Engineer with 13+ years of industry experience at Zscaler and Microsoft, focused on building cloud-scale platforms that help organizations discover, classify, and protect sensitive data across modern environments. I work at the intersection of distributed systems, cloud security, and product engineering, translating ambiguous problems into reliable, performant services that operate at enterprise scale. I lead through architecture and execution—driving technical direction, mentoring engineers, raising engineering standards, and partnering closely with product and security stakeholders to deliver measurable outcomes. My strengths include system design, scalability and performance, service resilience, and pragmatic engineering trade-offs. Always interested in conversations around data security, distributed systems, system design, and building high-performing engineering teams.
