What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead architecture and delivery for scalable, high-load systems, work closely with product and business stakeholders, and mentor engineers while improving engineering standards and team effectiveness.

I've spent 13+ years building web applications, APIs, CRM systems, and backend platforms across fintech and crypto. At Simply Technologies and Sygnoos, I led engineering teams, shaped architecture, improved CI/CD and delivery practices, mentored engineers, and resolved performance and production issues.
