About

Specialist Low-Latency Real-time Systems C++ Engineer

I engineer high-performance systems that handle multi-Gbps real-time data streams, delivering scalable, reliable solutions for technically complex projects. My expertise spans C++, multi-threading, memory management, and low-latency network protocols, enabling solutions that drive measurable value for clients and end users.

I take an open-minded approach to technology, evaluating multiple frameworks and tools to find the best fit for each problem. I enjoy discovering novel ways to leverage existing technologies to deliver high-impact, tailored solutions that maximize performance, reliability, and usability.

Technical Highlights

High-performance systems engineering: multi-Gbps throughput optimization, profiling, stress testing, fuzz testing, and advanced debugging with GDB/Wireshark.
Full-stack and data infrastructure: Java, Spring, MongoDB, Neo4j, PostgreSQL, Apache NiFi, deployed and orchestrated with OpenShift, OKD, Kubernetes, and Docker.
Mentorship and knowledge transfer: training engineers in advanced systems engineering and reverse engineering, accelerating team capability.
Proven results: delivered 50% faster data ingestion, increased throughput, and significantly improved system reliability and stability for a Java Spring backend reading from a bespoke Elastic Search engine and writing to a sharded and horizontally scaled Accumulo database.

I approach every project as a collaborative process, working closely with clients and stakeholders to understand their needs, prioritize outcomes, and ensure every solution delivers measurable impact. By combining deep technical expertise, creative problem-solving, and a client-first philosophy, I deliver systems that are not only technically outstanding but also highly valuable for the people who rely on them.

Personal Passions & Interests

Outside of software, I have a deep curiosity about the intersection of disciplines in STEM. I spend time on personal projects that let me explore systems, technologies, and physical principles in depth — diving down rabbit holes to experiment, test my own theories, and challenge conventional approaches. For example, I enjoy exploring quantum physics concepts through hands-on experimentation at my electronics workbench, constantly learning by building, testing, and observing.

I also maintain an active, balanced lifestyle. I enjoy a hybrid training approach combining weightlifting and running, which keeps me fit, energized, and focused. I’m a foodie and love cooking, sharing meals with friends and family, and traveling to new places to immerse myself in different cultures, learning how people live, think, and solve problems in their own environments.

Lastly, I’ve also been playing the classical and electric guitar since I was young, which brings me a lot of joy while keeping my mind creative, focused, and engaged.

These pursuits outside of work fuel my creativity, persistence, and analytical thinking, qualities I bring to every project I take on. They also reinforce my belief that curiosity and experimentation are at the heart of great engineering.
