## About

```text
At Gold_FX, my self-directed engineering platform, I developed modular Python systems for market-data processing, backtesting, broker/API integration, and risk workflows.

I set up Linux and Windows environments across Oracle Cloud/VPS and Docker, and built automation, APIs, and scheduled reports for its data flows.

I also developed operational monitoring and recovery workflows, including Axiom observability, health checks, alerts, and restart/reconnect recovery with durable state and reconciliation.

At Cognizant, I supported enterprise infrastructure and production operations, including remote data center support and L1.5 team coordination. I automated AppManager incident-ticket generation, reducing manual intervention by approximately 40%.
