Backend and Data Platforms

Designing typed APIs, relational data models, migrations, focused read models, reconciliation checks, and workflow automation.

Full-Stack Engineering

Shipping Next.js, React, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Convex, and middleware features that connect product interfaces to reliable backend behavior.

Reliability and Security

Using fail-closed authorization, RBAC, audit events, rate limits, browser and API tests, recovery controls, and checked evidence for public claims.

Experience

AI engineering, AWS microservices, and cloud infrastructure roles.

AI Engineer Intern

Pinnacle EDU | Summer 2026 - Present

  • • Designed and implemented a role-based advising CRM beta for an organization supporting 100+ advisors and 10K+ students, connecting academic records, applications, and advisor follow-ups with scoped access for staff and students.
