Relevant Experience
- Owned full-stack development of a healthcare data platform: designed the PostgreSQL schema, built the Express REST API with JWT/bcrypt authentication, and shipped the React frontend consuming it.
- Improved reliability across the stack with centralized error handling, request schema validation, and secure authentication flows.
- Translated business requirements into technical solutions through iterative Agile delivery.
- Built and deployed a cloud-hosted Next.js + TypeScript application, owning features end-to-end from API routes and database to UI.
- Designed backend workflows for booking and notification systems and the frontend surfaces that drive them, emphasizing maintainable architecture.
- Set up secure routing, automated backups, Git/GitHub CI workflows, and production monitoring; gathered requirements directly from stakeholders.
- Developed cloud-based analytics solutions on live AWS and Azure pricing data; built data ingestion pipelines and backend services for real-time cost analysis.
- Implemented secure IAM policies and API integrations; delivered features through Agile sprints with design discussions and code reviews.
Projects
ASP.NET Core, C#, PostgreSQL, Redis, JWT
- Cut API response latency ~40% under concurrent workloads with Redis caching; optimized database access and async processing for peak-traffic throughput.
- Applied design patterns and JWT-based authentication for maintainable, fault-tolerant services.
Python, BERTopic, Transformers, NLP
- Processed 23,000+ text records with transformer embeddings and BERTopic, automating theme extraction and eliminating manual labeling.
- Built modular ML pipelines that reduced experimentation time by ~50%.
