Proven ability to design and deliver scalable, distributed systems across backend, frontend, and runtime layers.

Strong experience with TypeScript and React ecosystems (React 19 Vite, monorepos) for modern web application development.

Solid experience in REST APIs, microservices, containerization (Docker/ECS Fargate), and cloud-native architectures.

Proficiency in PostgreSQL, Redis, and search/indexing systems (OpenSearch); exposure to document/graph databases is a plus.
