Senior Software Engineer

Key Accomplishments

• Built frontend applications with optimized UI/UX using React, Typescript, Next.js, React Native, Expo, TailwindCSS, and ShadCN with Tanstack Query and Zustand for state management, delivering real-time telemetry dashboards, delivery scheduling, and multi-hub monitoring.
• Integrated Mapbox and CesiumJS for 2D/3D geospatial visualization of live drone positions, flight paths, and geofences — and built a 3D aviation data visualization platform connected to ML pipelines to accelerate autopilot system development.
• Migrated real-time drone telemetry pipelines using MQTT/HiveMQ, Kafka, and PostgreSQL processing ~1200 events/s, reducing end-to-end ingestion latency by ~70%.
• Integrated GraphQL/Hasura layer over PostgreSQL, improving query throughput by ~65% and eliminating protobuf coupling bottlenecks across client applications.
• Enforced RBAC with row-and column-level permissions across operator, partner, and admin roles, reducing unauthorized data exposure surface by ~80%.
• Built backend microservices for flight operations and delivery orchestration using Typescript, Python, and Go on AWS, infrastructure managed via Terraform.
• Utilized AWS SQS/SNS, Twilio APIs to architect a real-time notification system for flight status and delivery lifecycle events and integrated PostHog for product analytics and feature flag-based rollouts.
• Authored agent rules for Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex into the centralized repo to standardize AI-assisted development, driving the adoption of an AI-driven engineering culture.
• Established CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions and Terraform, and wrote automated tests using Jest, Pytest, and Playwright, maintaining 70%+ coverage across critical flight operation features.
• Mentored 3 junior engineers through code reviews and architectural guidance, and joined the on-call rotation to ensure 24/7 reliability of production drone delivery systems.
