Message

At Raft AI, I built a no-code Decision Graph with FastAPI, RabbitMQ, and React Flow, cutting custom integration delivery time by 80%. I’ve also created integration and templating tools that help teams connect freight-forwarding platforms and deliver simpler integrations.

I introduced Auth0 and reworked the Organisation and Accounts hierarchy to support granular role-based access control for sensitive invoice workflows. I also established an audit logging architecture that processes events from across services and archives them in Elastic Cloud.

Earlier, I built invoice-processing and logistics tools at Raft AI, and a telemetry ingestion pipeline and Kafka-based observability system at Nokia. I’ve also worked as a Full Stack Engineer and contributed to frontend features at GlobalLogic.
