Experience

Dec 2024 - Present
Software Engineer
Viridia Solutions Inc. · Plano, TX
- Built distributed NestJS services on AWS ECS ingesting 1M+ MQTT messages/day from electric vehicles across MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, SNS/SQS, and IoT Core.
- Developed fleet-efficiency analytics over 55K+ trips with causal modeling and energy estimation, identifying a 12% driver-efficiency gap across 35+ drivers and $38K+/fleet/year savings opportunity.
- Built Lydia, an agentic AI assistant for fleet-telemetry analytics with multi-turn tool calling, schema inspection, SQL generation and execution over ClickHouse, and chart/report generation.
- Architected Lydia's event-delivery platform with a MySQL control plane, transactional outbox to Kafka/MSK, Redis Streams for replayable event delivery, and defined SLOs.
- Deployed an LLM inference engine with vLLM and llama.cpp on an on-prem GPU server behind EC2, NGINX, and Route 53, replacing RunPod and reducing serving cost by $2K/month.
- Implemented OCPP 1.6 EV charging and health monitoring services in Java/Spring with Terraform, Lambda, CloudWatch, and SNS, reducing incident detection time to under 2 minutes.
May 2023 - Dec 2024
Junior Software Engineer
Viridia Solutions Inc. · Plano, TX
- Designed and deployed NestJS microservices on AWS ECS processing 1M+ MQTT messages per day.
- Implemented scalable event-driven backends with IoT Core, SNS, SQS, Kafka, and Redis Pub/Sub for sub-second operator dashboard updates.
- Optimized high-traffic MySQL query paths with composite indexing and schema-level tuning, reducing average query latency by 42%.
Aug 2021 - Mar 2022
