The site you're reading this on — cloudflare-workers-resume.daanyaal-dev.workers.dev — was built and deployed to Cloudflare Workers as part of this application. That's the short version of why I'm a fit for the Forward Deployed Engineer role.

I'm a senior software engineer with 5+ years of production ownership across data pipelines, APIs, and full-stack applications. At Propel Holdings, I architected and operate a 500GB+/day ETL platform on Azure — owning not just the design but the on-call reliability of systems the business depends on daily. I've built a domain-specific language to eliminate a class of manual work, optimized query paths by 60%, and shipped executive dashboards that replaced multi-day reporting cycles with real-time views. At PricewaterhouseCoopers, I was embedded directly in a client's engineering organization — not advising from the outside, but writing production code that reduced their monthly workload by 40 hours. That's the FDE model I already know.

What draws me to this role specifically is the combination of Cloudflare's platform breadth and the customer-embedding model. I want to write production code that runs at Cloudflare scale — Workers, D1, KV, AI Gateway — not just consult on architecture. I learn platforms by shipping on them. Building this site gave me direct hands-on experience with the Workers runtime, the @astrojs/cloudflare adapter, and Wrangler's deployment model. I use Claude Code and Cursor as first-class tools in my development cycle — not supplements. The JD calls for "AI-native development"; that's just how I work.

My background in network engineering at Rogers also gives me an instinct for how infrastructure behaves at scale — latency, routing, configuration drift, incident response under pressure. I know what "five nines" means operationally, not just on paper. And having worked across backend data, networking, and full-stack application layers, I'm comfortable contributing wherever a customer's engineering organization needs depth.

I'd welcome the chance to talk through what the first 90 days at a strategic account would look like, and how my background translates. Thank you for your time.
