@aljoekuriakose
Backend-focused software engineer specializing in scalable fintech systems and secure access management.
What I'm looking for
I am a backend-focused software engineer with hands-on experience building scalable fintech and banking platforms in regulated environments. I design and deliver high-availability REST APIs, subscription systems, onboarding/KYC workflows, and RBAC-based access controls that emphasize security and maintainability.
At Open Financial Technologies I contributed to core fintech workflows—developing subscription management, integrating DigiLocker and Perfios for automated KYC, and linking HubSpot CRM to improve lifecycle visibility. I also implemented Maker–Checker approval flows and collaborated closely with product, QA, and DevOps to ensure timely, compliant releases.
My technical toolkit includes Laravel/PHP, Golang, Python, MySQL, Redis, and CI/CD automation; I prioritize reliable system design, cross-functional collaboration, and delivering production-grade features in regulated domains.
