Senior Software Engineer, Fukk-Stack Software Engineer, Solutions Architect

I bring 8+ years of experience building distributed backend systems, cloud-native architectures, and enterprise integrations across startup and enterprise environments in New Zealand and India.

Currently at an enterprise software company, designing and delivering high-volume backend APIs, event-driven microservices using AWS (Lambda, SQS, SNS, EventBridge), and AI-integrated services using AWS Bedrock Agents — including prompt orchestration and streaming response pipelines. Responsible for automating infrastructure and IAM deployments via Terraform and GitHub Actions, and leading architecture discussions with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Previously at an IoT analytics startup as Lead Software Engineer, architected and built an entire real-time IoT fermentation analysis platform from scratch — the first and sole engineer — making all foundational technology and architecture decisions. Designed the full system spanning hardware gateway integration, backend APIs, Azure cloud infrastructure (AKS, App Services), message queuing via Azure Service Bus, distributed caching, and a frontend dashboard. Grew and mentored a team of 2–4 engineers as the platform scaled towards 100,000 sensors in production.

Earlier roles include Full-Stack Developer at a digital marketing agency, where a business integration process redesign reduced execution time from 2 hours to 30 minutes, and Software Engineer and Senior Software Engineer at a technology company, where a C# automation solution reduced hardware calibration time by 75%.

AWS Certified Solutions Architect (SAA-C03). Currently building an AI-augmented Angular dashboard using Aider and open-source LLMs as an active exploration of AI-assisted development workflows.

I bring a combination of deep backend engineering, production AI tooling experience, greenfield platform ownership, and the ability to mentor engineers and influence technical direction.
