What I'm looking for

I’m looking to own end-to-end backend initiatives—microservices, low-latency REST APIs, and optimized databases—in Agile teams that value strong DevOps practices on Azure/Kubernetes and measurable enterprise impact.

I’m a Senior Backend Developer with 9+ years designing and delivering scalable, high-performance server-side systems. I focus on microservices architecture, RESTful API development, and database optimization across relational and NoSQL stores.

In enterprise environments across media-tech, fintech, and FMCG, I’ve owned complex features end-to-end—from design through delivery. At Thomson Reuters, I architected and built backend services for a real-time video streaming platform, creating centralized stream-management APIs for multi-tenant, low-latency performance.

I also engineer systems for reliability and auditability, like my work on the Capex Viability Tool for long-range financial forecasting and automated approval workflows. I bring strong hands-on cloud and DevOps tooling (Microsoft Azure, Docker, Kubernetes) and Agile/cross-functional execution, partnering with frontend and QA to ship high-quality releases.
