About me

Software Developer at AttainX, where I work on VEHCS, a client-facing certification platform processing 1.2M+ submitted certificates and serving roughly 1,000 concurrent users daily. I lead the incremental REST migration of a legacy JSF/Oracle application to a modern service layer, write the tests that back it, and mentor developers coming onto the contract. I have experience across the full stack with Java, TypeScript/React, Python, SQL, and AWS serverless architecture, with a focus on performance, scalability, and shipping incrementally without breaking production. Please view my resume section for more information on my technical skills.
