I’m a backend and data infrastructure engineer with 10+ years of experience building cloud-native systems for analytics, automation, and reporting. My core background is in PHP/Symfony/MySQL, where I’ve contributed to the design of and maintained complex platforms that serve millions of users. Alongside that, I’ve expanded into data engineering, leading the design of AWS-based pipelines using Glue, Lambda, S3, and Parquet to support real-time tracking, ETL workflows, and Salesforce-integrated reporting.
I focus on reliability, scale, and performance across both application and data layers. My work spans event-driven architectures, schema-evolving data flows, cost-optimized storage, and Drupal-powered platforms. I partner with analytics, product, and education teams to ship infrastructure and applications that are fast, durable, and aligned with business goals.
