Software Engineer @ Oracle

About

Software engineer with a strong background in backend development, distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, and front end UX. Most of my professional experience has been in Java, C#, and Python, but I'm open to working with other C-like languages. I’ve led and worked on high-impact projects at Amazon Pharmacy and Fannie Mae, designing and delivering scalable backend systems while also working on mobile solutions and improving user experiences. My work spans AWS, CI/CD pipelines, service architecture, infrastructure automation (CDK/YAML), and maintaining production systems with strict SLAs. I have also mentored engineers and contributed to team processes with documentation and tooling, and handled 24/7 oncall shifts. Any parties interested in hiring me, please send a job description, compensation details, and a phone number or email for follow-up. I’m primarily interested in remote opportunities, but I'm open to on-site positions as well. If you have multiple openings, feel free to share any relevant to my experience.
