What I Build

Capabilities that create lasting value — from founding departments to solo-engineering production systems.

Build Capabilities from Zero

Systematic capability building, charter to handover

I don't just join projects—I build entire capabilities that generate new value. Proven with SRE (now generating service revenue), now applying the same systematic approach to AI-augmented engineering. You get systematic capability-building: charter, tech stack, team training, operating model, clean handover.

  • ✓ Department Creation: Charter definition, tech stack selection, service catalog design
  • ✓ Team Building: Hire, train, and mentor engineers (trained 4 SREs, onboarded Manager)
  • ✓ Operating Model: Runbooks, ownership boundaries, processes that outlast me
  • ✓ Business Impact: Enable new revenue streams (SRE now offered as service)
  • Real-world example: Built SRE function in 9 months → company now sells SRE services to clients

Extreme Performance Optimization

Find the hidden 96.67% improvements

I find the hidden 96.67% improvements others miss. Deep database optimization, query tuning, architectural refactoring, caching strategies—whatever it takes to transform unusable workflows into instant results. Zero downtime, maximum impact.

  • ✓ Database Optimization: Eliminate N+1 queries, add strategic indexes, optimize EF Core
  • ✓ Application Performance: Batch APIs, async patterns, compiled queries, no-tracking
  • ✓ Frontend Speed: Angular caching, lazy loading, code splitting (80% load time reduction)
  • ✓ Migration Excellence: Zero-downtime Azure migrations serving millions of users
  • Real-world example: Patient Communication: 10 minutes → 20 seconds (96.67% improvement)

Site Reliability Engineering (Production-Grade)

350+ resources automated, boringly reliable

Build monitoring, automation, and incident response frameworks that scale. From manual chaos to automated reliability covering 350+ compute targets. Datadog expert, IaC specialist (Bicep/Terraform/Ansible), on-call veteran. I make systems boringly reliable.

  • ✓ Comprehensive Monitoring: Datadog APM, logs, synthetics—standardized across entire fleet
  • ✓ Automation at Scale: 350+ Azure resources automated (App Services, Container Apps)
  • ✓ Incident Response: On-call protocols, RCA processes, blameless postmortems
  • ✓ Infrastructure as Code: Bicep, Terraform, Ansible for repeatable, version-controlled infra
  • Real-world example: Automated 200+ App Services + 150+ Container Apps with Datadog

Full-Stack Development (Modern .NET + Angular)

Modern .NET + Angular, database to UI

Build modern, high-performance web applications with clean architecture and maintainable code. .NET 8 backends, Angular frontends, SQL optimization, microservices. Point of Contact experience—I can own entire features from database to UI.

  • ✓ Backend Excellence: .NET 8, ASP.NET Core, EF Core, async/await patterns
  • ✓ Frontend Modern: Angular 17+, TypeScript, Angular Material, RxJS
  • ✓ Database Mastery: SQL Server optimization, dynamic queries, stored procedures
  • ✓ Architecture: Microservices, Modular Monoliths, Clean Architecture, DDD
  • Real-world example: Led Express.js → .NET 8 migration with 300% throughput improvement

AI-Augmented Software Engineering

Spec-driven development with LLM agents

Automating the full SDLC with LLM coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity). Spec-driven development: write specs, let agents implement. Custom automation workflows, prompt engineering, context engineering with MCP servers.

  • ✓ AI Coding Agents: Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity
  • ✓ Spec-Driven Development: Write specs, let agents implement end-to-end
  • ✓ Context Engineering: MCP servers, structured prompts, agent orchestration
  • ✓ SDLC Automation: From requirements to deployment with AI assistance
  • Real-world example: Building and shipping products faster through AI agent orchestration and custom workflows

Solo Consulting & End-to-End System Delivery

Full ownership, architecture to deployment

Independent consulting engineer delivering production systems solo. Full ownership from architecture to deployment—mobile apps, backend services, infra automation, geospatial processing. Proven with Haji Tracker (live system built on weekends while excelling in full-time role).

  • ✓ Solo Full-Stack: React Native mobile + .NET 9 backend + Ansible infra automation
  • ✓ Geospatial & GPS: Real-time ingestion pipelines, geo classification, state machines
