Experience
Senior Software Engineer
Qualys
Cloud security, multi-cloud scanning, distributed orchestration, and compliance automation for CSPM/DSPM/CWP platforms.
- Architected multi-cloud agentless snapshot scanning platform (AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI)
- Kafka-driven microservices, Redis coordination, dead-letter handling at enterprise scale
- Azure cross-subscription snapshot architecture — 60% provisioning time reduction
- RBAC, Key Vault, and compliance automation — 85% security violation reduction
Continuous Compliance Automation Framework · built from scratch
- Built a RAG-powered compliance knowledge pipeline for ISO 27001, NIST, and SOC 2, grounding control evaluations in authoritative evidence with Elasticsearch hybrid retrieval.
- Orchestrated the evaluation lifecycle with LangGraph, from evidence ingestion and retrieval through control-level reasoning and report generation.
- Combined citation-validated LLM judgments with DeepEval/RAGAS quality checks and versioned releases for reproducible evaluations and rollback.
Senior Software Engineer
Globant
Billing platforms, payment integrations, policy-based access control, microservices, and full-stack delivery.
- Decomposed billing monolith into service-oriented components — 40% perf improvement
- PCI-compliant hosted payment integrations with Stripe and major gateways
- 18% faster PostgreSQL queries via indexing, caching, and query planning
Software Engineer
CasaOne
Inventory, warehouse, logistics, operations automation, and API performance optimization.
- Reduced API latency from 9–13s to under 2s
- GCP Pub/Sub event pipeline for real-time inventory state sync
Software Engineer
