Software Engineer
Engineering products from architecture to deployment — with an eye on the larger picture: system design, scalability, and the product decisions that actually matter.
Engineering systems that scale. Thinking beyond the feature.
I'm a software engineer with a deep interest in the larger systems that power products — architecture decisions, API design, scalability trade-offs, and the strategic thinking behind what gets built and why.
Currently at Match My Roomie, I work across the full stack, but what drives me most is the systems thinking underneath: how services communicate, how products evolve, and how engineering decisions shape user outcomes at scale.
“Man's Search for Meaning”
On finding purpose through suffering — a perspective that reshapes how I think about meaningful work and what's worth building.
Agentic systems, MCP, context engineering, and the broader implications of AI on system architecture — how the primitives of software are being fundamentally redesigned.
Working out, hiking, playing or watching sports, reading, and hunting down hidden gems — places most people walk right past.
Consistency and hard work above all. That good things happen to good people. And that you can believe in the larger scheme of things without needing a religion to frame it.
I'm a committed generalist — city skylines and quiet mountains, stadiums and living rooms, all cuisines and all genres. I'll go hiking with a group of ten or spend the weekend on the couch with my partner. The only common thread: I'm genuinely curious about all of it.
Drove technical integrations for Loyalty Program partners — analyzing requirements, authoring API contracts and integration guides, and participating in partner engineering discussions to refine error handling and end-to-end test scenarios. Configured OAuth2, OIDC, and SAML authentication flows, reducing auth issues through improved validation logic. Provided L3 support via Splunk, performed UI updates via GitLab CI/CD, and leveraged AI tools (Gemini, Glean) to accelerate configuration and pattern research.
Led the Capstone Project to develop an analytics dashboard using the MERN stack deployed over Firebase — recognized as 'Best of Program' for innovative use of technology to visualize company performance data.
Engineered a scalable travel platform with MongoDB and Amazon RDS, showcasing familiarity with AWS services. Utilized Redux for state management and Mongoose for MongoDB interaction, ensuring efficient data handling.
A new project currently in the works — an exploration of system design and product thinking put into code. Stay tuned.
