Senior Full-Stack Engineer at TraderApp, building crypto copy-trading systems processing 2,500 orders per minute.
What I'm looking for
At TraderApp, I started from a blank slate and built a live crypto and forex copy-trading platform, designing its AWS architecture and order execution system. It processes 2,500 orders per minute at about eight-second latency and has grown to 5,000+ users and $1M+ in connected trading capital.
At Turing, I led a team of five on a B2B SaaS platform serving 20+ enterprise organisations and 10,000+ business owners. I delivered platform systems including multi-tenancy, real-time chat, calendar sync, and integrations with HubSpot, Shopify, and Stripe.
Duplo contracted me as its sole engineer to build a B2B merchant payments platform from scratch, including CBN NIBSS bank verification and direct bank payouts. I’m open to Senior Engineer, Staff Engineer, CTO, and EM roles in fintech, SaaS, or trading, remotely.
