HIPAA-aware backend engineer specializing in secure voice & messaging platforms for healthcare and communications. Over 10 years at Nuance (formerly Varolii) building large-scale appointment reminder and notification systems, plus recent projects integrating SignalWire, Deepgram, and Jitsi for real-time transcription.
I thrive on building reliable, compliant, user-focused systems that handle sensitive data without cutting corners. Comfortable across Scala, Java, TypeScript, and modern backend/cloud tooling.
Currently seeking remote contract or long-term freelance roles in healthtech, secure communications, or voice/video platforms โ especially where privacy, security, and meaningful impact matter.
