About

Technical Lead | AI-Native Systems & Distributed Architectures I am a Lead Engineer with 10 years of experience specializing in the architecture, design, and delivery of high-scale software solutions. My expertise lies at the intersection of traditional enterprise stability (Java, Angular) and the next generation of intelligence (LLM Agentic Orchestration, Generative AI). Currently, as a Technical Lead at Google, I lead the development of AI-native feedback ecosystems, focusing on LLM fine-tuning and the orchestration of autonomous agents to transform raw data into actionable product insights. Throughout my career at Google, Capgemini Engineering, and Deloitte, I have bridged the gap between complex business requirements and robust engineering execution. I have a proven track record of leading cross-functional teams of up to 50 engineers across global locations to deliver high-concurrency platforms that drive market penetration. Core Technical Strength: AI & Intelligence: LLM Fine-tuning, Agentic Workflows, LangChain, and Predictive ML. Architecture: Microservices, Event-driven (Kafka), Distributed Systems, and OLAP layers. Full-Stack & Backend: Expert-level Java, Spring Boot, and Angular. Cloud & Scale: Deep experience in GCP, AWS, and Azure; Kubernetes, Terraform, and CI/CD. Domain Expertise: Financial Services, Insurance (Guidewire), and Big Data. Key Career Milestones: Performance Optimization: Designed event-driven architectures that reduced system latency by 40%. Cost Leadership: Engineered cloud-native migration strategies that achieved annual savings of over $725K. Team Leadership: Mentored 20+ senior engineers and governed delivery for large-scale, 50-person global engineering organizations. I am passionate about building "Zero-to-One" platforms and modernizing legacy ecosystems through AI-first principles and observability uplift.
