At Nucleus Software, I partnered with BFSI clients including BMW UAE, Federal Bank, FBN, and Emirates NBD to streamline payment flows, credit evaluations, and lending operations across corporate and retail lending environments. I contributed to modules processing high-volume financial transactions, supporting 100K+ loans and $10M+ in daily transactions. Resulting in improved automation with higher traceability and operational efficiency.

I have collaborated with cross-functional teams on digital banking and core payment modules implementations, including AI-assisted credit scoring & AML checks resulting in more streamlined workflows, and helping embedded data-driven decisioning for end to end lending processes. I also shaped operational KPIs and built Tableau dashboards tracking payment SLAs, TAT and portfolio performance, giving stakeholders clearer visibility into process bottlenecks and service performance.

Earlier, as a Software Developer at Nucleus Software, I developed REST APIs and microservices using Java/Spring Boot and integrated machine-learning models into workflows. I contributed in transforming manual and fragmented processes into automated services, resulting in measurable improvements in processing efficiency and reducing operational errors by up to 80% across 10 projects.
