Professional Summary

Full-Stack Engineer with 8 years of experience shipping production software for retail, B2B e-commerce, HR tech, and SaaS platforms. I currently lead a team of 2 to 4 developers, own architecture decisions (Clean Architecture, microservices, event-driven services), and have integrated AI models (Claude, Gemini, OpenAI) into 4+ production applications. My backend production work is TypeScript-first, with Python in production from 2018 to 2022 at H3S and again from 2024: a FastAPI multi-provider LLM service, a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) module I wrote in order to teach it, and a document-extraction engine. I also design analytical data models in SQL and dbt (data build tool) on PostgreSQL. Founder of 2 SaaS products built end-to-end. Core stack: TypeScript, Node.js, Python, React/Next.js, PostgreSQL, and AWS.

Molt Solutions (formerly Algoritmo)

  • Lead a team of 2 to 4 frontend and backend developers: define technical tasks, set architecture standards, and support delivery across 5+ client projects in production.
  • Optimized database queries and parallel request handling against AI APIs for a talent assessment platform with 1,600+ active users and 10,000+ people assessed, reducing report response times.
  • Designed the backend of an AI video generation platform using Clean Architecture: an event-driven job pipeline with BullMQ and Redis for long-running generation workflows, Stripe billing, Clerk authentication, and 2 AI providers (Anthropic Claude and Bedrock).
  • Built a multi-tenant payment microservice in Express and TypeScript with 2 financial integrations (Stripe and QuickBooks Online via OAuth2), a dual-database design (MongoDB and PostgreSQL), and infrastructure as code with Terraform on AWS.
  • Integrated AI models (Claude, Gemini, OpenAI) into 4+ production apps: PDF reports, image tooling, and agent bridge services.

Analytics Engineer, dbt and PostgreSQL
