Software Engineer | Go · Microservices | Node.js · Backend APIs | Python · AI/ML · Integrations

Backend Software Engineer with 3+ years of production experience building distributed, high-throughput systems in Go: event-driven microservices on gRPC and Kafka sustaining 12K+ messages/min at sub-50ms p95 latency, and a market-data engine processing 10,000+ ticks/sec at sub-millisecond latency.

About

Comfortable owning a system end to end, from API design through production performance work, including cutting p95 latency 60% via profiling and index redesign, and integrating a computer-vision model into a live production workflow. Previously the de facto technical lead on a backend team, owning code review before an official promotion made it formal.

Experience

Backend Software Engineer (Go)

Andersen

Global software development company delivering custom software and digital transformation services to clients across industries.

Feb 2026 — Present

Led six Kafka and gRPC services sustaining 12K+ messages per minute, maintained 99.9% uptime, and reduced p95 API latency by 60%.

• Led design and implementation of 6 event-driven gRPC microservices with Kafka, architecting async inter-service communication that sustains 12K+ messages/min with at-least-once delivery and sub-50ms p95 consumer latency. • Deployed containerized services on AWS ECS with S3 and Cognito; instrumented distributed tracing via OpenTelemetry, maintaining 99.9% uptime in production. • Diagnosed a production latency regression via Go pprof profiling and PostgreSQL index redesign, cutting p95 API latency by 60% by eliminating hot-path allocations and N+1 queries.

Backend Software Engineer (Node.js, Part-time)

Repetino

Edtech platform with 3K+ active users, supporting session booking, messaging, and Google Meet integration.

Jan 2026 — Jul 2026

Built booking and messaging APIs for an edtech platform with 3K+ users, reducing API latency by 40% under concurrent load.

• Designed and shipped REST APIs for an edtech platform (3K+ active users), covering session booking, messaging, and third-party integration with Google Meet. • Reduced API latency by 40% under concurrent booking load via PostgreSQL composite indexes and Redis session caching.

Backend Software Engineer (Go & Node.js)

Roky

Aug 2024 — Mar 2025

Built concurrent Go scrapers processing 30K+ pages daily and Jenkins pipelines that cut failed releases by 70%.

• Built Go web scrapers processing 30K+ pages/day using goroutines and channels for fault-tolerant concurrent extraction, with dynamic IP rotation and automatic retry logic. • Configured Jenkins CI/CD pipelines with automated tests, cutting failed releases by 70% across distributed scraping infrastructure.

Beinekom

May 2023 — Aug 2024

Owned backend reviews, unified two access-control platforms, and integrated YOLOv8 to raise gate throughput 40% and cut manual logging 90%.

• Owned code review for the backend team, giving design and architecture feedback before changes shipped, ahead of an official promotion to lead. • Designed unified Go APIs orchestrating two third-party access-control platforms (Bolid and Rubezh), eliminating a recurring class of cross-platform synchronization failures. • Integrated a Python YOLOv8 computer-vision model into a live access-control workflow, increasing gate throughput 40% and cutting manual security logging 90%.
