What I'm looking for

I seek architecture-driven roles where I can lead system design, mentor teams, and build maintainable, scalable enterprise systems with clear security and integration practices.

I am a senior software engineer specializing in greenfield development, system architecture, and implementation of maintainable, scalable enterprise solutions. I bring deep C#/.NET expertise and extensive experience designing complex data and integration systems for international teams.

My recent work includes independent software architecture and system design projects, and leading development of an algorithmic trading platform with API abstraction, simulation, and testing. In prior roles I stabilized regulatory document generation using advanced XSLT on JSON, built banking portal core components, and integrated hardware and regulatory POS systems.

I value clear architecture, defense-in-depth security, and long-term collaboration. I hold certifications in Scrum Master, Scrum Product Owner, and DevOps Foundation, and I seek roles where I can drive system design, mentor teams, and deliver robust, production-grade solutions.
