Professional Summary

Software Engineer (6+ yrs) specializing in full‑stack delivery (MERN / MEAN), Microsoft 365 add‑ins (Teams, Outlook, Word), and cloud‑native architectures on AWS & Azure. I build resilient micro‑frontend platforms (18+ MFEs) and integrate AI / LLM capabilities to elevate legal authoring, review, and DevEx inside enterprise workflows.

  • Stack Depth: React, AngularJS, Next.js, Node.js, FastAPI, ASP.NET Core, Django.
  • Micro‑frontends: Webpack module federation, orchestrated CI/CD via Jenkins → S3; unified auth & shared design system.
  • Microsoft 365: Teams bots & message extensions, Office.js add‑ins (Word / Outlook new & classic), Graph API integrations, AAD app & delegated permissions, WAM OIDC flows, SharePoint permissions modeling.
  • Cloud & Data: AWS (EC2, Lambda, S3, DynamoDB) & Azure (Functions, App Services, Bot Service); Supabase (DB+Auth), Redis caching, secure APIs with JWT/OAuth2.
  • DevOps & Infra: Docker, Podman, Kubernetes, Terraform, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, Jenkins; automated compliance readiness (SOC 2 awareness).
  • Architecture & Quality: API layering, middleware auth orchestration, performance tuning, accessibility, test strategy.
  • AI Enablement: Built internal add‑in to refine Azure DevOps user stories and auto‑review PRs against project guidelines using LLM context.

Always exploring modern patterns, scalable design, and human‑centered developer tooling.

About

I value thoughtful collaboration, clarity, and incremental delivery. I like turning complex integration surfaces (cloud + Microsoft 365 + AI) into cohesive product experiences with strong guardrails and measurable outcomes. This site stays minimal: semantic HTML + modern CSS + a sprinkle of JS for progressive enhancement.
