What I'm looking for

I seek senior software engineering roles building and maintaining backend, middleware, and POS/embedded systems, leading small teams, mentoring engineers, and supporting production-critical systems in collaborative environments.

I am a seasoned software engineer focused on backend, middleware, and point-of-sale applications, with broad experience across enterprise and embedded systems.

I developed and maintained POS terminal applications for Travelex Australia, added PostgreSQL and OpenCobol support to Lawson System Foundation, and built configuration modules for IBM Tivoli Netcool Performance Manager for Wireless. I have led a software design team, performed code reviews, and delivered cross-border projects coordinating with QA and systems engineers.

I provide production technical support, including 24x7 on-call coverage, and I enjoy mentoring engineers and delivering reliable, maintainable software for mission-critical systems.
