Principal Software Engineer | Distributed Systems & Transaction Platforms
Platform Engineering • Cloud & Compute • Developer Tooling
Principal software engineer with 18+ years of experience designing and evolving business-critical platforms where correctness, traceability, and operational reliability are first-class concerns.
My background is in distributed systems, transaction processing, and platform engineering, with a long history of owning complex domains end-to-end — from core calculation engines to cloud-native execution pipelines. I tend to work at the boundary between domain-heavy business logic and modern infrastructure, helping teams make large systems more predictable under scale.
I’m most effective in environments where:
- data integrity and determinism matter
- failure modes must be understood and contained
- systems are expected to evolve without constant rewrites

I focus on making complex systems easier to reason about:
- Clarifying ownership boundaries between domain logic and infrastructure
- Reducing failure blast radius through isolation and idempotent design
- Designing for operational visibility, not just functional correctness
- Balancing delivery pressure with long-term system health
I’ve spent much of my career inheriting long-lived systems and helping them evolve safely — improving reliability, performance, and maintainability without disrupting the business.
My public repositories primarily reflect experimentation, learning, and reusable tooling patterns, rather than client-specific systems. I use open source as a way to explore architecture, packaging, testing strategies, and developer experience in isolation from proprietary environments.
In parallel, I maintain private research projects focused on:
- platform automation
- system introspection
- developer productivity tooling
- large-scale codebase analysis
- 🏗️ 18+ years building and operating complex software systems
- ⚙️ Deep experience with high-throughput, deterministic processing
- ☁️ Extensive work in Azure-based compute and data platforms
- 🧪 Strong emphasis on testability, observability, and correctness
I’m always open to conversations around distributed systems, platform engineering, and building reliable software at scale.
I build systems meant to last — not just ship.
