About
Background and approach
Quick Facts
I specialize in building backend and platform systems in Go, especially in environments where reliability, scale, and infrastructure awareness matter.
My background spans storage software, high-load products, HA design, automation, telecom systems, and network engineering, which gives me a practical understanding of how distributed systems behave in production.
Earlier in my career, I worked deeply in networking, telecom, and infrastructure, with hands-on exposure to routing, VoIP, HA design, monitoring, and operational support. That experience still shapes how I think about software: I pay close attention to failure modes, rollout safety, observability, and the realities of running systems in production.
Today, I’m particularly interested in backend and platform roles where I can combine systems thinking with practical engineering execution. I enjoy building reliable services, improving internal platforms, and contributing to technical direction in environments where scale, complexity, and infrastructure awareness really matter.

Selected Work
Selected engineering work
Storage Systems at YADRO
Worked on storage software in a systems-heavy environment, using Go and C on Linux with tools like etcd, Docker, and Pacemaker. Focused on reliability, coordination, and production-grade engineering.
High-Load VoIP Platform
Built and evolved backend/core components for a VoIP platform, connecting call-processing, billing, and frontend systems. Worked on architecture, integration patterns, high-load behavior, and high availability.
From Networks to Platform Engineering
Built my engineering foundation in telecom, ISP, and network operations: routing, VPN, VoIP, monitoring, and distributed infrastructure. That background still shapes how I design software for production environments today.
Traffic Analysis and Infrastructure R&D
Worked on traffic analysis methods, routing/switching research, and network measurement in a custom-hardware environment.
