What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster innovation, collaboration, and professional growth.

I am a dedicated Software Developer with over three years of experience in the Fin-Tech industry, specializing in both internal and customer-facing applications. My expertise lies in leveraging modern tech stacks such as Java, Spring Boot, and Angular to deliver high-quality products that enhance customer experiences. I thrive in Agile environments, employing test-driven development (TDD) and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) practices to ensure seamless application performance.

At Western Union, I designed and developed an event-driven architecture utilizing Java microservices, significantly improving the efficiency of compliance case processing. My role involved optimizing database performance and implementing scalable solutions using AWS technologies. I also took the initiative to lead a team in developing an integration test library, showcasing my commitment to quality and collaboration. I am passionate about mentoring junior colleagues and fostering a culture of continuous learning within my teams.
