Backend & Distributed Systems Lead (9+ YOE) specializing in event-driven architectures and distributed failure handling. I design for at-least-once delivery with idempotent consumers by default, treating exactly-once claims as anti-patterns.

Recent systems built to prove out distributed-correctness patterns:

- Fraud detection pipeline built on Kafka transactional outbox/inbox topologies and Redis Lua atomic velocity gates.

- Resilience control plane using Compare-And-Swap (CAS) ownership fencing—deliberately chosen over Redlock based on network partition failure analysis.

- Provisioned the stack via Terraform on AWS ECS Fargate with zero static keys (IAM OIDC) and Lambda budget breakers that auto-scale idle infrastructure to $0.

Looking for: Senior/Staff Backend or Distributed Systems roles.

Open to full-time remote or high-ownership contract engagements.
