About

Building systems that
just work.

I'm a software engineer with 3+ years of experience designing and building backend systems, APIs, and ERP platforms. I focus on scalable APIs, event-driven architecture, and distributed workflows. I care deeply about correctness, observability, and developer experience.

Currently working on an ERP platform focused on retail, MSMEs, and agritech, designing systems that handle complex workflows across these domains. I'm especially interested in how complex business workflows translate into reliable systems, and how to keep them consistent, predictable, and maintainable as they evolve over time.

Outside of work, I explore system design concepts, study distributed systems, and build small projects to better understand real-world engineering trade-offs.
