What I'm looking for

I seek backend or platform roles where I can design scalable microservices, improve reliability, mentor engineers, and work in cross-functional, remote teams focused on high-availability systems.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with 7+ years building and operating production systems in high-availability environments. I specialize in Java and Kotlin and have deep experience with microservices and event-driven architectures.

I have led extraction of legacy logic into standalone services and owned end-to-end validation flows by aligning stakeholders and defining cross-service architectures. My work focuses on improving fault isolation, scalability, and availability in SaaS and banking environments.

I mentor and onboard engineers, document domain flows, and drive process improvements such as CI optimizations and automation that reduce processing time and increase throughput. I deliver solutions from requirements to production and collaborate effectively within fully remote, cross-time-zone teams.

Technically, I am experienced with Spring Framework, Kafka, gRPC, cloud platforms and observability tooling, and I continuously seek to improve system performance, reliability, and developer experience.
