Summary
Owning internal Node.js and React services reliably and shipping automation that reduces operational overhead, the focus of five years of MERN platform work. Covers Node.js, MongoDB, and React on AWS across internal developer platform and reliability services.Full stack platform services that the engineering team depends on for shipping, monitoring, and debugging their own work. Five years of internal tooling and developer platform work has built a practical understanding of where Node.js services fail under load and how to fix them. Has resolved data integrity incidents, pushed APM adoption, and built incident response automation that operations teams rely on. Skills

Experience
Full-Stack Engineer Jan 2021 - Present
47Billion (Remote)Santa Clara, CA
• Took ownership of the internal MERN developer portal, rebuilding deployment dashboards, service health views, and feature flag management interfaces that engineers use as their daily starting point.
• Resolved a Socket.IO connection instability issue by configuring the Redis adapter properly, eliminating dropped real-time connections the on-call team had been investigating without resolution.
• Implemented centralized structured logging with correlation IDs using Winston and Datadog across Node.js services, making log-based debugging reliable enough the team stopped needing direct server access.
• Used Cursor as the primary coding tool for Node.js service and React dashboard scaffolding, and integrated the Claude API into an internal incident response tool that converted structured alert metadata into plain-language runbook steps, reducing the cognitive load on the on-call rotation. Professional Achievements
• Resolved a MongoDB connection pool exhaustion issue causing intermittent 503s, traced via slow query logs and fixed the cleanup pattern across services, eliminating recurring incidents.
• Converted manual incident response procedures into Node.js scripts triggerable via Slack, reducing mean time to remediation by meaningfully and improving on-call efficiency. Education
BS in Computer Science - UCP - Bachelor of Science in Computer Science
