At Quecko, I build high-performance distributed systems with Go and gRPC, improving microservice throughput by 45% and reducing latency by 12ms. I've also led a monolith-to-microservices migration using Docker and Kubernetes, increasing deployment frequency fourfold while reaching 99.99% uptime.

I bring experience from EcoFin Technologies building RESTful APIs, partner-bank integrations, and transaction systems with reliable ledger consistency. I enjoy designing cache-efficient execution engines, resilient event-driven systems, optimized databases, and clean architectures for products including a centralized cryptocurrency exchange and an on-demand fitness platform.
