What I'm looking for

I seek backend or platform roles where I can design scalable microservices, improve system reliability, work on crypto/fintech products, and grow into technical leadership in a collaborative, product-focused team.

I am a Senior Backend Engineer with deep experience building scalable, low-latency microservices and secure APIs for fintech and crypto platforms. I have led backend architecture and core service development for regulated financial products, NFT marketplaces, and high-traffic EdTech systems.

My work spans exchange services, wallet and payment integrations, event-driven systems, and database optimization across PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, DynamoDB, and Redis. I prioritize testability, code quality, and collaboration with product and frontend teams to deliver production-grade features.

I bring a practical focus on security, high availability, and cloud deployment (AWS), with hands-on experience in blockchain integrations, payment flows, and analytics-driven features that improve user experience and platform reliability.
