I am a Principal Software Engineer / Software Architect focused on designing and implementing distributed systems, real-time IoT telemetry platforms, and high-throughput event pipelines.
My work revolves around:
- Low-latency data streaming
- High-scale ingestion pipelines (200–300 msg/s per topic, peaks > 7k msg/s)
- Event-driven architectures (Kafka / Pulsar)
- Domain modeling, clean architecture and DDD
- Kubernetes-based ecosystems (EKS)
- Observability, resilience and performance optimization
- Engineering leadership & architecture governance
I love transforming complex distributed problems into predictable, scalable and elegant systems.
- Node.js + TypeScript
- Distributed Systems, Event-Driven Architecture
- Kafka, Pulsar, Redis (Lua), Elasticsearch, MongoDB
- AWS (EKS, EC2, VPC, IAM, SSM)
- Kubernetes (production-grade), Docker, Terraform
- Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry
- Real-time IoT telemetry pipelines
- High-throughput ingestion services
- Resilient microservice architectures
- Internal developer platforms and monorepos
- Low-latency distributed processing engines
- Secure service-to-service communication (TLS/mTLS, certificates, gRPC)
“Simple systems scale. Complex systems break.”
I believe that architecture is not about frameworks — it’s about clarity, consistency and predictability.
Strong engineering requires:
- Clear boundaries
- Stable contracts
- Explicit domain rules
- Observability by default
- Performance as a feature
- Cost efficiency
