Professional Summary

With over 13 years of experience in systems engineering and applications development, I've built my career at leading financial technology companies including Gemini, Two Sigma Investments, Jane Street, and Highbridge Capital Management.

My work focuses on building robust monitoring platforms, automating infrastructure operations, and developing data-driven solutions. I specialize in creating full-stack monitoring systems, migrating legacy infrastructure to modern cloud platforms, and building automation tools that reduce manual work and improve system reliability. I've worked extensively with Python for automation and data analysis, cloud infrastructure (AWS, Kubernetes), and monitoring tools (Datadog, Airflow) to solve complex technical challenges and improve operational efficiency.
