What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven Senior Software Engineer with extensive experience designing and delivering secure, high-performance applications across banking, insurance, logistics, and agri-tech sectors.
I build cloud-native microservices and front-end experiences using technologies such as Spring Boot, Next.js, React, Flutter, PostgreSQL, Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform, and I implement CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, GitLab and Jenkins.
I have led integrations with banking and payment systems (SOAP and REST), implemented identity solutions, and deployed on AWS services to ensure availability, security, and compliance for large user bases.
