What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build scalable, high-quality software across the full SDLC, solve complex technical challenges, and collaborate on meaningful products while continuing to learn and grow.

I'm building front-end features for FNB's Forex remittances product, delivering user-centric functionality, unit tests, and reliable integration across the full software delivery lifecycle.

Previously, I developed reusable microservice modules for Absa and helped Discovery migrate from a monolith to a multi-tenanted microservices architecture. I've also built Spring Boot services, web and mobile dashboards, and a blockchain-based electronic voting system, while mentoring junior peers on technical standards and best practices.
