About

I’m a software engineer focused on building scalable systems and developer-facing tools across backend, systems, and applied AI domains. I’ve built and maintained production-grade projects including an Android-based system used across 5k+ devices and open-source tools adopted by developers for security research and automation. My work involves low-level system debugging, performance optimization, and designing reliable software under real-world constraints. Technically, I work across Python, Rust, and TypeScript, with experience in backend systems, distributed components, and infrastructure. I’m particularly interested in problems involving performance, system reliability, and large-scale data or compute workflows. I focus on building systems that are not just functional, but robust, efficient, and usable in practice.
