I architect systems that scale — and keep them simple.

Interactive lab

Build an architecture, send it traffic, and watch where it breaks. Then fix it within budget.

Problem

System design is usually explained with static boxes and arrows, so the trade-offs between latency, failures and cost stay abstract.

Build

A deterministic queueing model of CDN, load balancer, autoscaling servers, cache, replicas and a write queue, with a live traffic diagram and three graded challenges.

Outcome

Each challenge fails with the naive design, can't be brute-forced within budget, and needs a new idea: caching, then queues and CDNs, then scaling for launch day.

Toyota Motors North America

Moving long-lived enterprise applications onto cloud-native AWS and Azure platforms.

Problem

Legacy applications carried growing tech debt, rising run costs and slow, manual release cycles.

Build

Re-architected workloads into microservices and serverless components (AWS Lambda, ECS, Docker) with clear service boundaries.

Outcome

Reduced tech debt, lower operating costs and systems built to scale with the business.

• AWS
• Azure
• Microservices
• Serverless
• Docker

Platform engineering

Every environment defined in code, every change shipped through an automated pipeline.

Problem

Hand-built environments drifted apart and deployments depended on tribal knowledge.

Build

Standardized infrastructure with Terraform and AWS CDK, wired into CI/CD automation with observability built in from day one.

Outcome

Repeatable, auditable deployments and faster feedback on system performance.

• Terraform
• AWS CDK
• CI/CD
• Observability

Co-founder & Technical Lead

Co-founded a software company and built products on open-source technologies.

Problem

Clients needed dependable web applications without enterprise-sized budgets.

Build

Led development teams, designed scalable databases and delivered applications in Angular, Node.js and PHP with a strong UX/UI focus.

Outcome

Eight years of products shipped and a team grown from the ground up.

• Angular
• Node.js
• PHP
• MySQL
• UX/UI
