What I'm looking for

I seek backend/cloud roles where I can build scalable ETL and reporting systems, mentor teams, and drive reliable, secure data pipelines in collaborative, growth-focused environments.

I am a backend software engineer with 5+ years building ETL pipelines, reporting solutions, and risk-related systems using Python, Bash, and Google Cloud. I combine a problem-solving mindset with collaborative delivery, having led migrations, cloud upgrades, and remediated large security backlogs while improving data and reporting reliability.

I have coached programmers for five years, mentored offshore teams, and driven technical best practices across projects—reducing incidents, optimizing ETL workflows, and delivering measurable improvements in trader visibility for counterparty risk exposures.
