• 
  

  Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps: Provision, deploy, and maintain cloud infrastructure on AWS using Infrastructure as Code (AWS CDK), leveraging Docker containers on ECS, S3, API Gateway, and Application Load Balancers (ALB).

  
  
• 
  

  Database Design: Architect and optimize relational database schemas (primarily PostgreSQL) alongside NoSQL solutions to serve complex data products.

  
  
• 
  

  Autonomous Execution: Drive feature delivery end to end in 2-week sprint cycles with independent problem-solving and proactive research.

  
  
•
