What I'm looking for

Ethical fintech with a company that focuses on shipping great software for end customers

I'm currently working as a Senior Solutions Architect and Software Project Manager at Alfa. I've worked as a backend software engineer and as a software implementation consultant. I'm currently working on SaaS web applications deployed in AWS using Docker and EKS.

My experience in software projects ranges from small, agile projects with a one-pizza team, up to 5+ year, 500+ person IT programs for some of the world's largest banks and manufacturers.

My experience across both software engineering and consulting means I bridge the functional and technical sides of software projects, with a focus on building resilient distributed systems, DevOps, and continuous improvement.

I've lived in the UK and US, and have been working remotely for over 3 years, across multiple countries, projects, timezones, and clients.
