Backend architecture
APIs and data models designed for fault tolerance from day one, not bolted on after the first outage. Clean schema design, sane boundaries, and systems that don't collapse under their own complexity six months later.
Ship it. Then make it survive.

CTO @ Techsolace
Most teams discover their infrastructure can't scale only after it starts costing them customers. I'm the engineer who fixes that before it happens, and the one who has been called in at 2am when nobody did.

Containerized infrastructure that deploys without downtime, real-time PostgreSQL replication for zero data loss, and CI/CD that doesn't require a prayer before every release.
Fractional CTO work: turning a demo into a product, setting technical direction, and building the review and observability habits a team needs before it doubles in size.
Company-wide technical leadership: architecting and shipping production-ready systems across TypeScript, Python, Go and Java, into scalable backend infrastructure supporting the full product and DevOps lifecycle.
Built 20+ scalable backend applications in Node.js and Python, delivering the product portfolio that carried the company through its early growth phase.
Selected into a limited cohort of builders in Midnight's Build Club. Architected the backend and smart contract systems for Brickchain, a privacy-first real estate tokenization platform.
Software Engineering Fellow in MLH's open-source track, working alongside a cohort of engineers on production codebases and code review practice.
Sustained multi-client delivery: designed and built 20+ dashboards and admin panels across Django, Spring Boot and Express.js, meeting varied technical and business requirements over a 2.9-year engagement.
