Full-stack engineer with 3+ years building production applications, AI-powered systems, and enterprise integrations. Experienced in end-to-end software development, system architecture, and translating complex business requirements into scalable technical solutions.

Full Stack Engineer CloudBase Services, Berkeley, CA

2023 — 2026

  • Led a 3-engineer team through full-lifecycle client projects, from requirements gathering to deployment.
  • Delivered production apps, integrations, and AI workflows across 30+ client engagements.
  • Implemented CI/CD pipelines, robust testing, and documentation standards to elevate code quality.
  • Doubled the company’s portfolio of integration-ready client portals.

Multi-Tenant Community Platform

Independent project

  • Built a multi-tenant platform for community organizations (staff portal, public website, shared Postgres backend), shipping newsletters, recurring events, and a public finance dashboard.
  • Scales from one community to a network: per-community branding, an extensible multilingual, right-to-left-ready interface, and role-based access enforced in the database.
  • Integrated Square for recurring donations and tablet kiosks, with CI/CD on GitHub Actions deploying every community in parallel.

AI Document Review Engine

CloudBase Services · adopted by client

  • Architected one dynamic engine from two prior builds to automate labor-intensive document review, extracting key data with confidence scores; database-driven tags and prompts add new document types with no code.
  • Designed a five-stage pipeline: concurrent OCR, smart page extraction, LLM extraction, and relational-database write-back.
  • Applied token management, retries, and per-document failure tracking in one Docker container.

  • FastAPI
  • Google Cloud Vision

Pursuit: A Human Bit-Rate Game

Independent project · Play it: pursuit-delta.vercel.app

  • Bridging neuroscience and software: a browser game that measures human bit rate, the benchmark for brain-computer interfaces.
  • Derived that bits per keystroke cap near 4.7 over 26 letters, so speed is the only lever; designed the board, input, and scoring around it, with a 95% confidence interval on every result.
  • Engineered a deterministic, framework-free TypeScript engine with an extensive automated test suite, so any scripted run reproduces its exact score.

B.S. Computer Engineering Brown University

2024

Senior Capstone: Electric Bicycle Conversion Kit with Regenerative Braking

  • Engineered a regenerative-braking circuit that boosts a hub motor’s 6–12 V to ~50 V, enough to overpower a 48 V battery.
