Remote worker with 23+ years of experience - Last seen ago

Senior Backend & Distributed Systems Engineer with 15+ years of experience building high-performance systems, scalable backend services, and AI infrastructure.

I specialize in designing reliable, low-latency systems and production-ready platforms using Python, C/C++, Java, Node.js, Kubernetes, Docker, PostgreSQL, and Linux.

My experience includes distributed systems, data ingestion at scale, AI model deployment, CI/CD, observability, and performance optimization in demanding environments.

I’m comfortable working end-to-end: from architecture and backend development to infrastructure and production deployment.

Currently open to remote roles focused on backend engineering, platform engineering, distributed systems, AI infrastructure, or performance-critical systems.
