About.
Software Engineer with 9+ years of experience architecting scalable distributed systems, automation platforms, and infrastructure tooling. At Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, I lead cross-team technical initiatives spanning network automation, capacity modeling, and device provisioning across 5+ OCI Realms — reducing manual operations by up to 15x.
Founding member and technical anchor of the RNA team — I drove architecture decisions, mentored senior engineers, and established engineering practices from the ground up. Currently championing AI-augmented development workflows and leading team adoption of LLM-powered coding tools.
Outside of work, I'm a thriller/horror movie aficionado. I love dancing, sketching, DIY projects, yoga, and baking.
