What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead architecture and technical roadmap decisions—building secure, highly available microservices on AWS. I want to partner with product and teams, run design reviews, mentor engineers, and apply GenAI/agentic approaches to accelerate delivery.

I’m a Technical Lead with 11+ years designing and scaling distributed, cloud-native systems across banking, fintech, gaming, and enterprise technology. I build solutions architecture grounded in system design (HLD/LLD) and API/microservices architecture for platforms processing millions of transactions.

I lead technical direction through architecture governance, design reviews, and engineering mentorship—partnering with product and business stakeholders to translate strategy into scalable, secure, highly available architectures. In recent work, I architected frameworks that improved reliability by ~40%, designed KYC/onboarding architecture for 100K+ users, and reduced critical API latency from 20 seconds to under 5 seconds.

I bring hands-on depth across Java, Python, AWS cloud architecture, Kafka, and Spring Boot to deliver event-driven, fault-tolerant systems. I’ve also applied Generative AI/Agentic AI—architecting an agentic QA framework in Python orchestrated with LangGraph, and building semantic search experiences using embeddings and vector storage.

Across teams, I serve as the technical authority for architecture decisions, defining coding and API standards and running design reviews that keep execution consistent. My focus is end-to-end reliability: secure data flow, encryption, observability, and pragmatic performance improvements that hold up in production.
