Senior software engineer building scalable FinTech and generative AI platforms with proven leadership.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-oriented Senior Software Engineer with 8+ years of experience designing, architecting, building, and scaling robust applications. I focus on platform efficiency, modernising legacy stacks, and embedding security principles from the start.
I’ve led full-stack delivery of GenAI and FinTech products, including architecting and deploying a full-stack generative AI solution for voice cloning and personalized storytelling. I also drove technical governance and execution for a critical front-end migration, improving scalability and user experience.
In global B2C environments, I engineered an AI-powered image generation service by fine-tuning Stable Diffusion models and deploying them on Replicate, with a custom backend API for client requests. I built high-adoption developer social experiences with rich content features, while strengthening stability through thorough test coverage.
Across real-time messaging and payments, I’ve implemented WebSockets-based architectures with offline capabilities and integrated multiple payment systems into unified transaction modules. I enjoy leading teams, translating complex problems into scalable system designs, and partnering cross-functionally to ship reliable products.
