Software Development Engineer

Built an API-based repository managing 450+ network device specifications with sub-120ms retrieval times, and developed a TypeScript web UI with an LLM-powered natural language interface that reduced schema creation time by 70%. Re-engineered a hardware requirements engine into a standalone service automating hardware selection for 250+ datacenter connections, saving 100–200 hours per planning cycle and preventing $100K+ in cost overruns. Optimized an ML device ordering system, achieving 97% efficiency improvement by reducing processing time from 120 minutes for four datacenters to 4 minutes for all datacenters in a region. Engineered an analytics pipeline using DynamoDB Streams, Lambda, and Redshift to analyze request volumes, latency, and access patterns across 37 endpoints.
