What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that values innovation and offers growth opportunities.

I am a seasoned Technical Lead with over 15 years of experience in software engineering and system integration. My journey began with a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, followed by a Master's in Information Systems from DeVry University. Throughout my career, I have successfully led diverse teams in developing innovative solutions that meet and exceed business objectives. My proactive approach and problem-solving skills have enabled me to tackle complex challenges, particularly in high-stakes environments.

At TCS, I spearheaded the migration of services to the latest technology stack, collaborating closely with architects and developers to ensure optimal design patterns. My role involved overseeing a large team, ensuring code quality, and implementing microservices that significantly improved operational efficiency. I have also contributed to major projects at Wells Fargo, where I led the development of a microservice processing over 900,000 transactions daily, showcasing my ability to deliver scalable and robust solutions.

My technical expertise spans a wide range of technologies, including Java, Spring Boot, Apache Camel, and various database systems. I am committed to continuous learning and staying abreast of industry trends, which allows me to bring innovative ideas to the table. I am passionate about creating impactful solutions and fostering a collaborative team environment.
