About

Engineering that stays useful after launch.

My work connects software delivery with the platforms and practices that keep systems dependable.

I have 12+ years of experience building and modernizing enterprise applications, SaaS platforms, APIs, automation workflows, and cloud-based systems. My background spans back-end and full-stack engineering, platform architecture, CI/CD, identity and access, integrations, and production operations.

At the Alberta Securities Commission (ASC), I work across application, data, identity, automation, and cloud layers. I care about secure architecture, clear delivery paths, and reliable systems that teams can confidently develop, deploy, maintain, and evolve.

Also known as Arash Kp or Ash Kp.
